Evergreen's Redmond Medical Clinic and Emergency Department to be located in Bella Bottega
"Evergreen Hospital is pleased to announce it will open a freestanding emergency department in downtown Redmond in 2011. Ground breaking for the three level, 48,000-square-foot facility is set for May of this year. (Thirty-six underground parking stalls and nearby parking is planned to service patients and 50 staff.)
The emergency department will be part of a new Evergreen medical complex that will be built in the Bella Bottega shopping center. The facility will also house lab services and advanced diagnostic imaging; it will also merge Evergreen's two Redmond-based primary care practices - Evergreen Medical Group Redmond and Family Medicine of Redmond.
When completed, the emergency department will have the capacity to provide care for 35,000 patients per year and will open with 16 emergency care exam rooms. Open around the clock, it will be staffed by a team of board-certified emergency room physicians, trauma-trained nurses and social workers.
"Evergreen Hospital has provided exceptional care to the communities in our public hospital district for the past 38 years," says Al DeYoung, president of the Evergreen Board of Commissioners. "We have a responsibility to our rapidly growing service area to provide access to the highest standard of health care, including emergency and primary care."
Evergreen plans to invest approximately $15 million in the project. An estimated 50 staff members will work the new Emergency Department and clinic. Underground parking for 36 cars is planned within the building. For more information go to http://www.evergreenhealthcare.org/.
Do you think there will be enough parking space for this facility and others around it?

no way will there be enough parking for the rest of the businesses...especially the movie theater customers. On a big movie release night, most times you have to park in the QFC lot...kind of a weird location for it
ReplyDeleteBob, Finally got the answers I needed so I could answer your question about parking at our new site.
ReplyDeleteThe parking places in the building will be for patients, not for employees.
The owners and managers of the shopping center have designated parking areas for employees which include an area behind QFC and a row of stalls between the movie theater and the mall stores.
Hope that answers your question.

"Exceptional Care Close to Home and Free Parking, too!"
WRONG! EVERGREEN MEDICAL CENTER will not have underground parking. Parking in the building will be at grade level - first story. WRONG! At least 125 staff + patients are will be in the building next year when it opens - NOT 50 STAFF. My information (and correction) has been confirmed by Evergreen Hospital Dir. of Planning and Marketing and the City of Redmond development staff.
