We are thrilled to share that our brand-new Emergency Department, Main Entrance, and Registration are now open and fully operational!
Our outpatient registration successfully moved into the new space yesterday, June 24th, and the official transition of our 24/7 Emergency Department went live at 7:00 AM this morning.
Moving a round-the-clock emergency medical facility and registration hub on a tight timeline is a massive undertaking. We are incredibly proud of our team for their hard work, agility, and absolute dedication to ensuring uninterrupted patient care throughout the entire transition.
Navigating the Transition Together
As with any major move involving complex medical infrastructure, new technology, and entirely new workflows, we are currently navigating a few inevitable bumps in the road. Our staff is working diligently to iron out these minor issues as quickly as possible.
We kindly ask our community for an extra measure of patience and grace with our team over the next few days. Our top priority remains, as always, providing you with exceptional care while we get settled into our new surroundings.
📍 Important Information for Patients & Visitors
If you are arriving on campus, please take note of these key changes:
-
New Traffic Pattern: Primary access to the new main entrance is via Somerset Street, which should be your route moving forward. The previous one-way road wrapping around the building by Primary Care connecting the lower and upper parking lots has been widened into a two-lane road to accommodate two-way traffic. Please use extra caution as drivers adjust to this change.
-
Wayfinding: Once inside the main entrance, clear signage will direct you: Emergency services go to the left, and outpatient services registration goes to the right.
Looking Ahead
With this major milestone complete, the next phase of our campus transformation is underway. Our construction team will soon begin renovating our former spaces to further improve the patient experience at MRH.
Thank you for your continued support, understanding, and partnership as we celebrate this incredible new chapter for our community’s healthcare!
