Groundbreaking for the expansion of the Bayhealth Medical Center is set for late spring with plans to be open by 2019.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that the $277 million Milford project got the okay from the Delaware Health Resources Board yesterday.
The new structure is located around 3 miles from Milford Memorial Hospital.
Among the features are single-patient rooms, an emergency room with easier access, outpatient services and a diagnostic facility.
The expansion covers 165 acres which far out does the current campus of 22.
