Neighboring Hospitals Plan $1B Expansion

PALO ALTO, CA-Stanford Hospital & Clinics and Lucile Packard Children's Hospital announce plans to rebuild and expand their facilities.

By Brian K. Miller | Updated on November 21, 2006

PALO ALTO, CA-Stanford Hospital & Clinics and Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital plans to expand their facilities in coming years at a combined cost of $1 billion. Stanford Hospital’s partial teardown and expansion is slated for completion in 2015. Lucile Packard’s expansion is slated to be complete two years earlier.

In addition to accommodating increasing demand, the projects are at least in part required by state law. The law requires that hospitals meet state seismic safety guidelines no later than 2015, and by 2013 in most cases.

Stanford Hospital is currently a 456-bed facility and Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital is a 257-bed facility. The projects will turn them into a 600-bed facility and a 400-bed facility, respectively.
