ELK GROVE - California Northstate University (CNU) today unveiled ambitious plans to build a 250-bed teaching hospital adjacent to its campus in Elk Grove. The University has submitted plans to the City of Elk Grove to begin the process toward construction, projected to begin in 2019 and be completed by 2022.
The California Northstate University Medical Center will provide the city and region with much-needed access to Level II trauma care, acute and comprehensive medical care, and physician training. The hospital will improve public safety and emergency response times and is expected to create more than 24,000 new jobs over the next 10 years. In addition, it will reduce traffic to and from Sacramento, and CNU will work with the city to create transit routes to the medical center for local employees.
