Providence Tarzana Announces Expansion

Providence Tarzana Medical Center on Thursday announced a $624 million expansion plan that calls for a new patient wing including a lobby and reception area as well as new diagnostic and treatment areas and expanded parking. The new patient wing will have 190 beds — some in private rooms — and will house a new emergency department which will include a pediatric department and pediatric intensive care unit. The major renovation should bring in approximately 1,000 construction jobs to Tarzana, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. The existing hospital will also receive such upgrades as improvements to the neonatal intensive care unit as well as the women’s pavilion. Located at 18321 Clark St., Providence Tarzana anticipates construction to conclude in 2022 and has already submitted its plans to the city of Los Angeles, which are pending approval.
