Hospital Plans $30 Million Upgrade at Needham, MA Campus

Among the many benefits of living in Needham, having a world class hospital in your hometown is a huge source of pride and comfort for many residents.  The Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital, formerly Glover Memorial, has thrived as a branch of Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center of Boston by attracting top doctors and providing academic-center levels of care at a lower cost in a convenient location. The hospital announced recently that it plans to move forward with a $30 million expansion plan later this year to increase capacity and improve its emergency care and radiology departments.  The expansion will include at least 20 single-bed private rooms and will also include a magnetic resonance imaging device (MRI) so the hospital can perform the lucrative procedures that it currently refers outside the hospital. The hospital plans to raise $5 million from donors in the area and will receive $7 million from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. The remainder will come from funds raised from a bond offering.
