A brand new emergency room at Queen’s North Hawaii Community Hospital was unveiled to the public on Saturday, January 25.
The new emergency room will expand from the existing 3,300 square feet to over 12,000 square feet. It will house 13 private patient rooms — 11 standard and 2 trauma rooms—as well as a centralized nurses’ station, new ambulance and patient entrances, and a beautiful, spacious new waiting room. The new space is designed to provide a superior quality environment for patients, with private rooms providing more privacy to support a healing environment.
The new emergency room will be open for patients on Wednesday, January 29.
