NewsChannel 13: St. Mary’s, Samaritan to Transition Roles Ahead of Schedule

Spectrum News aired a story about the new Samaritan Hospital Emergency Department, which will begin accepting patients at 4 a.m. on Thursday, December 7. 

The new, state-of-the-art PCU features larger, fully private rooms designed to provide a more comfortable and healing experience for patients, as well as advanced monitoring and diagnostic equipment to help physicians, nurses, and technicians provide the highest quality, patient-centered care.
