Ground Broken for New CCMH ER

Charles Cole Memorial Hospital in Coudersport has broken ground on its $4 million 6,600-square-foot emergency room renovation project.

The construction of a separate walk-in and ambulance entrance will allow convenient access to the E.R. from the hospital’s west entrance for the nearly 10,000 patients that visit the ER each year.

The new design also incorporates new rooms for private treatment and exams, an isolation exam room, a dedicated triage area, a private bereavement room, a comfortable waiting room with 20 additional seats, and an updated nurses’ station and doctors’ office.

The project is expected to be finished late next year. The current emergency department will continue to operate 24/7 during construction.
