The new 350,000 square foot MHP Medical Center will employ 57 physicians and 934 employees to provide patients all their healthcare needs in one location, including doctor appointments, lab work, and imaging. The facility will include 56 private inpatient rooms designed for shorter stays and lower costs, and 38 outpatient rooms in the new Ambulatory Care Center. A new hospital was needed as the current one does not have enough space or parking for the estimated increased number of future patients, and maintaining the existing building would be too costly.

that will be home to
57 physicians and 934
employees. Patients will have
their doctors appointment,
lab work, and imaging all
completed in one location.
One location
that provides all
your healthcare
needs.
3. 56 private inpatient rooms
Each room has been designed to provide
the patient with new treatment technologies
and to promote shorter patient stays -
which equals a cost savings to the patient.
Also included in the new hospital are 38
outpatient rooms in our newly designed
Ambulatory Care Center.
All your healthcare needs
on one campus.
Tired of traveling from one side of town to
another for your doctor’s appointment, lab
work or more? The new Major Hospital will be
home to 30 Primary Care Physicians and 27
Specialists.
Why do we need a new
hospital?
The current facilities at Major Hospital do
not provide enough space to provide the
estimated increase in patients in the future
years. Not only is parking an issue, but building
maintenance will be costly. It came down to a
decision to either invest money in our current
building (and become locked in a building that
can no longer be expanded) or invest in the
future of healthcare at a new location.
