Danville – Hendricks Regional Health is proud to announce it has secured the purchase of vacant farmland to construct a new Emergency Department and outpatient center on the east side of Brownsburg.
The 100,000 square-feet retail healthcare center will be built on the northwest corner of Interstate 74 and Ronald Reagan Parkway near exit 68. To address the growing medical needs of northern Hendricks County and beyond, it will house an Emergency Department and immediate care center; lab and radiology services; a comprehensive women’s center; physical rehabilitation; physician offices; a retail pharmacy; a specialty clinic and additional retail space.
“We are very excited to announce our further growth with the Town of Brownsburg,” said Hendricks Regional Health President & CEO Kevin Speer. “The timing is right to more fully enhance our services in this area and invest in a significant project that will benefit the community. We value the support that we have received from Town officials and look forward to bringing this project to fruition.”
The facility will cost an estimated $48 million to construct and is planned to create more than 110 jobs once completed. It is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2017 and will coincide with the extension of Ronald Reagan Parkway from US 136 to County Road 300 North.
“We have been working on identifying a location and a way to bring an enhanced variety of services closer to the north side of Brownsburg,” said Hendricks Regional Health Vice President & Chief Strategy Officer Gary Everling. “Our focus at the new center will be on ease of access with more emphasis on the continuum of care for families, in particular for women, as well as providing care for emergent services.”
While the new center will service the northern portions of Brownsburg, the existing Hendricks Regional Health medical office building, located at 1411 South Green Street in Brownsburg, will remain open to serve the south side of Brownsburg and northwest side of Avon. That facility features a variety of physician offices and laboratory services. In addition, as part of this enhancement of services, Hendricks Regional Health will be opening an Immediate Care location on Northfield Drive on May 2.
