The West Jefferson Medical Center Master Plan project includes expansion and renovation to the Marrero Campus to better serve patients, staff, and guests. The preliminary scopes in WJMC’s Strategic Facility Plan include South Wing Patient Tower expansion and renovations; Ambulatory Surgery Center additions and renovations; Surgical Department renovations; and Emergency Department renovations. The project will provide new PACU, Cath Lab, and ORs, along with modernization of the existing ORs. New emergency department exterior entries, trauma bays, and pediatric areas will also be included.

The project was executed in phases in order to maintain full operations throughout construction.
