Ochsner Baptist Medical Center Wednesday said it plans to open a full-service emergency room on its Uptown campus at 2700 Napoleon Ave. by this winter.
Emergency services have not been available on the Baptist campus since Hurricane Katrina.
“We’re about halfway through construction, and upon completion, the ER will have 12 beds within approximately 6,000 square feet and will include state-of-the-art electronic computerized patient tracking to ensure that staff are always aware of patient waiting times, service delays, test results and all patient care activities,” said Baptist CEO Robert Wolterman.
CT scan and all other radiologic imaging will also be available, he said.
