United Memorial Medical Center will hold a community forum to discuss its surgical expansion project. It will begin at 6 p.m. on Thursday (Feb. 11) in the hospital boardroom, located at 127 North St., Batavia.
This event is open to the public and will provide an opportunity to share information and answer questions regarding the surgical expansion project.
It will create five new operating suites, 19 private recovery areas and a handicap accessible main entrance and lobby. It's expected to be completed next January.
Approximately $19.5 million will be invested into the facility through the improvement. The $19.5 million sum will comprise $3 million in HEAL NY grants and $2 million reinvestment of hospital funds. United Memorial will finance $13 million and seek community funding for the remaining $1.5 million.
