New Emergency Department (Denville)

The Miracle of Saving Lives...at Denville

Over the last three years, emergency admissions to Saint Clare’s Hospital/Denville have increased 10.5 percent, with the Denville Emergency Department now caring for nearly 37,000 adults and 8,000 children a year. Those levels are projected to grow to 45,000 adults and 15,000 children over the next 5 to 10 years.

In order to adequately serve the community’s growing emergency needs, provide for safer patient access, and to prepare for potential bio-chemical exposures, Saint Clare’s needs to expand its Emergency Department capabilities in Denville and undertake both internal and external renovations to the existing emergency facility.

These upgrades will include: the installation of a dedicated C-T scanner, X-ray rooms, a Triage Room, a new Waiting Room for families, and a private Grieving/Family Consultation Room; expansion to the pediatric emergency center to include 8 Treatment Rooms, a Resuscitation Room and an Orthopedics Room specifically for children; and renovation to include a decontamination washing facility and equipment for recovering and storing materials and chemicals for safe disposal.
