Updates
Big changes are coming to PMCH, and we could not be more excited!
Level 1 Trauma Emergency Department
We became a Level 1 Trauma Center and Burn Unit in 2021! We are currently the only hospital in the state of Indiana with both adult and pediatric Level 1 Emergency Department and Trauma Care underneath one roof. Our Trauma care specialists, accredited and certified staff, dedicated equipment, and sophisticated resources are readily available when trauma patients arrive. We have 24-7 access to onsite specialty services such as anesthesiology, plastics surgeons, critical care specialists, and radiologists -- available to provide exceptional care as injuries dictate.
New Construction
- Relocation of Ascension St. Vincent Women’s Hospital (see below for details)
- New Brain and Spine Hospital
- New parking garage and additional surface parking
- Additional green spaces/walking paths on campus
Ascension St. Vincent Women’s Hospital will be relocated from Township Line Road to the Ascension St. Vincent Hospital Campus and will include the addition of 107 new, private neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) rooms. With approximately 268,000 square feet of new space, mothers and babies will be cared for under one roof, enabling Ascension St. Vincent to continue to offer the highest level of care for mothers and infants who are the most critically ill. We will provide complex, comprehensive care with the goal of reducing maternal and infant mortality in Indiana. In addition to being the largest NICU in the state, PMCH will be one of only two Level IV Perinatal Healthcare Centers in Indiana.
The new structure, which will be connected to Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital, will bring together all related departments, including mother/baby care, high-risk OB, labor and delivery, NICU, and support and administrative services, as well as public spaces. The co-location of pediatric specialty care, along with maternal and NICU services, will ensure seamless care that keeps babies and mothers close together.
