Beaumont spends big bucks renovating Grosse Pointe hospital

metromode, 1/29/2009

Beaumont Hospital, Grosse Pointe is catching its second wind thanks to some timely investments in renovation.

"The building was looking tired so we did some sprucing up," says Karen LeDuc, communications manager for Beaumont Hospital, Grosse Pointe.

Beaumont has been renovating the common areas with new paint and carpeting since it bought the 289-bed hospital in late 2007. The latest investment is in newly renovated seven-chair Infusion Services Unit. Beaumont spent $225,000 on the 2,570-square-foot space.

The new unit provides a space for patients of all ages to receive intravenous medication for conditions such as cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease. The new room comes with amenities like 32-inch flat-screen TVs and reclining chairs for patients.

The Sisters of Bon Secours founded the hospital in 1945. Today it provides medical, surgical, emergency, pediatric and critical care services. It's located at 468 Cadieux Road, just north of Jefferson Avenue and downtown Grosse Pointe.
