"Sutter Roseville Medical Center is fortunate to be part of a vibrant and growing community that holds a bright future," says Pat Brady, CEO of Sutter Roseville Medical Center. "As the community continues to expand, the hospital also must expand to sufficiently serve the growing number of Placer County residents."

"Sutter Roseville is dedicated to improving the overall health of the community," adds Brady. "We are excited to expand our physician base and programs and services to keep up with the growing demand from the community."

Sutter Roseville Medical Center recently submitted a Conditional Use Permit Modification application to the City of Roseville, increasing the projected build out of the campus from the approved 655,000 square feet to 1.1 million square feet over the next 15 - 20 years. Expanded growth on the campus is a mix of future medical office building space, inpatient acute-care space and supporting parking garages. The review process with the City of Roseville is expected to last through the end of 2006. As the City of Roseville proceeds with its review of our application, Sutter Roseville Medical Center will be working closely with our neighbors and community.

Our Master Site Plans include some very exciting projects at each of the three phases.

  • Phase 1 - includes the 106,000 square foot Acute Rehabilitation Center, which is scheduled to open late 2008.
  • Phase 2 - allows for the expansion of medical office building space and parking.
  • Phase 3 - the final phase, allows for additional medical office building and acute care (inpatient) growth.

Our Expansion Plans

Patient Care Bed Tower | top
As our community grows, so does our need for more hospital beds. Under construction now, this new four-story, 88,000 square-foot patient bed care tower will feature 90 private patient beds and will provide comprehensive acute hospital care to patients with a broad spectrum of diagnoses, including oncology patients and those who have recently had surgery. All of these patient rooms are private, include additional room for family members, and are equipped with handicap accessible bathrooms. The tower will also provide space for essential support services such as food and nutritional services, environmental services, and materials management.

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) | top
Our Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is projected to open in 2008 with 16 licensed beds. Serving residents in Placer County and beyond, the NICU will have physicians who are board certified in neonatal-perinatal medicine, nurses with specialty training in the care of the critically ill neonate, many of whom who are certified in advanced life support, and a specially trained transport team. This special care nursery is supported by more than 25 neonatal and pediatric sub specialists who are immediately accessible through the nursery.

The unit is scheduled to open with 12 bassinets and provide immediate and advanced life-saving care to the most critically ill newborns. By offering the latest medical treatment for these fragile newborns, Sutter Roseville's new Neonatal Intensive Care Unit will keep parents and families closer to home, work, and their other children, while allowing them more time with their ill newborn. The 24-hour facility encourages families to visit as much as possible and take an active role in the baby's care

Acute Rehabilitation Center | top
As a Level II Trauma Center, Sutter Roseville often treats patients with the most serious injuries and illnesses. Once they are stabilized, however, they must often receive ongoing, intensive rehabilitation and therapy. To meet the growing needs of the trauma center patients and the thousands of patients statewide who need acute rehabilitation services, Sutter Roseville Medical Center is building a 56-bed Acute Rehabilitation Center. The expected completion date is the end of 2008.

Our Acute Rehabilitation Center will be a highly specialized unit providing an intensive, interdisciplinary program directed to help restore function, independence and quality of life to patients severely impaired by trauma, disease or illness.

The Acute Rehabilitation Center will open with 40 beds with the capacity to expand to 56 beds to provide expert care. In addition to the best in medical care, patients and their families will be involved in a range of rehabilitation specialties to include physicians, nursing, neuropsychological, and multiple therapies (speech, physical, occupational and recreational), along with case management and social services.

The Rehabilitation Center will have three main units to care for the diverse needs of patients:

  • Brain Injury Unit - The brain injury unit will have 10 private rooms within a secured area and separate dining and therapy areas for patients with cognitive impairments.
  • General Rehabilitation Unit - This unit will focus on providing care and treatment to patients who are working to overcome limitations due to stroke, neurological or orthopedic conditions.
  • Spinal Cord Unit - This unit will provide attention to patients who are impaired by quadriplegia and paraplegia.

Features of the Acute Rehabilitation Center will include:

  • Inpatient Patient Gym - Therapy sessions focused on regaining mobility, balance and strength will be conducted in this large, inpatient gym.
  • Daily Living Treatment Room - Therapy will focus on retraining patients on the tasks of daily living such as cooking and other household activities.
  • Private Therapy Treatment Rooms - There will be several private treatment rooms to foster an appropriate environment to restore cognitive and communication abilities.
  • Inpatient Dining & Recreation Lounge - The indoor/outdoor dining and recreation areas will promote patient interaction and socialization as an important element of their rehabilitation.
  • Outdoor Therapeutic Area - This area will be designed to replicate various everyday situations that patients may face in the community.
  • Independent Living Apartment - The independent living apartments will feature specially designed, private treatment rooms where patients and families can re-learn and practice daily living skills such as cooking and laundry before going home.
  • Education Resource Area - Providing access to educational content and community resource information, this center will serve as an invaluable resource to patients and their family members.

Well Baby Nursery | top
Expected to open in the summer of 2007, our Family Birth Center is relocating the newborn nursery and expanding its capacity to 30 bassinets.

Emergency Department Expansion | top
In October 2005, we completed the expansion to our ED's treatment bay area, increasing the total number of treatment bays to 31.

Additional recent expansion projects to our ED include the expansion and renovation of our trauma resuscitation area. This expands the area in which trauma patients receive vital treatment and allows for immediate diagnostic capabilities such as X-ray services – right in the trauma room.

Additionally, a dedicated radiology room is located within the ED itself to expedite imaging services directly in the emergency department. This brings the capacity in the ED to 31 treatment areas plus 3 rapid medical exam (triage) beds.

Cardiac Catheterization and Angiography Suite | top
Recent enhancements to our cardiac services include an additional cardiac catheterization lab. We've also recently expanded our angiography services to include interventional neurological studies.
