TEMECULA: New hospital holding open house on Aug. 10

Hospital

?

Universal Health Services is holding an open house at the almost finished Temecula Valley Hospital on Saturday, Aug. 10.

The open house, which is being called a Community Celebration, is scheduled to start at 9 a.m. and run until 7 p.m.

There will be a Kids? Zone featuring fun and healthy activities for youngsters and adults will be given tours of the new facility, the city?s first hospital.

The tours will start at 9 a.m. and run every 15 minutes. To reserve a time for a tour, hospital officials are asking folks to visit the website, call 951-694-4405 or email cheri@rkrmarketing.com.

Parking will be available at the nearby Rancho Community Church lot at 31300 Rancho Community Way or at the lot on the corner of Santiago Road and Ynez Road. Free shuttles will be provided, including handicap accessible shuttles.

The opening of the hospital, long awaited by Temecula residents, is scheduled for the fall.

On July 26, the hospital is holding another job fair for experienced nurses at the Workforce Development Center in Murrieta, 30135 Technology Dr.

Interviews will be conducted onsite for 10-hour and 12-hour shifts. The fair runs from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Hospital CEO Darlene Wetton said this week hiring is on schedule and the hospital has around 125 doctors in the fold already, with another 25 or so left to recruit.

The 140-bed, five-story tower that will be open for tours is the first phase of a hospital complex that could include another five-story tower, which would add another 100-plus beds, a cancer center, a fitness center and medical office buildings.

The Temecula hospital project was delayed for years because of legal back-and-forth that pitted Southwest Healthcare System, a subsidiary of Pennsylvania-based Universal Health Services, against the state.

In 2011, Universal removed the project from Southwest?s control and started construction, a move that was applauded by Temecula council members who had been frustrated by Southwest.

Southwest, which eventually cleared up licensing concerns with the state and opened the expansions that had been stalled, continues to manage hospitals in Murrieta and Wildomar, although both now have their own CEOs.
