Baptist Orange Hospital ended inpatient services in 2015 and closed its emergency room in 2017, leaving a significant healthcare hole in the community, according to the Beaumont Enterprise.
Denver-based NexCore Group, a healthcare real estate developer, is working with Christus to restore access to care in the community by building the Gisela Houseman Medical Campus.
Phase one of the project will be a two-story, 55,000-square-foot medical office building expected to break ground in January. Christus will lease most of the first floor, which will feature a 24/7 emergency hospital as well as outpatient and diagnostic services.
Independent physicians will lease the remaining space, according to the report.
A grand opening is set for spring 2023.
