Overview
Stanford University Medical Center is in the process of renewal. We must
modernize facilities that are the foundation of our community's healthcare
services to address state-mandated seismic safety laws, a critical shortage of
beds, increasing patient needs, undersized facilities, and the space
requirements of new medical technologies and advances in medical care.
- Rebuild Stanford Hospital & Clinics and the Emergency Department (which serves both Hospitals) to meet seismic-safety requirements and capacity needs
- Modernize and expand Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital to meet capacity needs
- Replace the School of Medicine facilities to meet new seismic-safety standards and to accommodate modern technology
- Renovate Hoover Pavilion, the original Palo Alto Hospital, to accommodate community physicians whose practices will need to be relocate
