Dignity Health Yavapai Regional Medical Center's East Campus is expanding its inpatient care services with the opening of a new state-of-the-art 10 bed intensive care unit, ICU. The former ICU unit will be repurposed for surgical, medical, and telemetry care, bringing the total inpatient bed count on the hospital's east campus from 72 to 82. This will allow YRMC to provide more health care access to the community. We are thrilled to expand our services to care for our growing community, said Anthony Torres, MD, President and CEO of YRMC.

This new ICU unit is another example of our commitment to delivering more state-of-the-art health care access to care for the community and to better serve our patients when they need care the most. A special ribbon-cutting ceremony was held on Tuesday, March 4th, at YRMC's Prescott Valley campus. Those in attendance heard from Dr. Torres and community leaders, including Prescott Valley Chamber of Commerce CEO Steve Brasty, about the addition's importance and the positive impact it will have on the community. This is great news for our community. The opening of a new ICU unit at YRMC means expanded critical care for those who need it most, said Brasty. This investment in health care strengthens our region, ensuring top-tier medical support close to home. It's a huge

win for patients, families, and our dedicated YRMC health care professionals. The new ICU unit is the second edition of health care services for the Prescott Valley community in recent weeks. YRMC recently opened a new sports medicine clinic that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of exercise and sports-related injuries. These services will enhance the level of specialized care and will reduce the need for residents to travel to other cities for medical treatment, said Dr. Torres. We are grateful to be able to provide these services to our great community. Stay well with more Mind, Body, Body, Soul on Signals AZ.com.
