Latest Update – January 7, 2022
We care deeply about the environment in which ALL our patients receive their care. Because of the success of the most recent Capital Campaign, three new state-of-the-art spaces at St. Mary’s Regional Medical Center have been realized.
Phase 1 – Child and Adolescent Behavioral Unit – Opened Spring 2018
Our youngest behavioral patients are receiving care in an exceptional environment in our Pediatric Behavioral Unit. Because of the features and design of the new space, there is an increase in responsiveness to treatment and shorter inpatient stays.
Phase 2 – Infusion Center – Opened Summer 2020
Patients in need of infusion therapy to address a variety of medical disorders such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, blood disorders, and rheumatoid arthritis are receiving treatment in comfortable and private bays in the new Infusion Center. Infusion Center Virtual Walk Through
Phase 3 – The Carlton and Lucille Sedgeley Adult Behavioral Unit – Opened December 2021
The third and final phase of the Making an Impact with Care & Compassion Capital Campaign for St. Mary’s is complete. Construction of the Carlton and Lucille Sedgeley Adult Behavioral Unit was finished on November 29, and patients, providers, and staff moved into the unit on December 29, 2021.
This space, designed in collaboration with behavioral patients, will provide inpatient behavioral health care to up to 18 patients in 14 single rooms and 2 double rooms. Five of those rooms are equipped to provide medical care to more medically complex patients, eliminating the need to move patients outside the unit.
Patient responsiveness to treatment will improve and collaboration among providers and staff will be far more efficient. St. Mary’s extends immense gratitude to the many caring entities and individuals who made this space a reality. The funding for this project was made possible by the generosity of employees, foundations, businesses, and individual community members who joined us in our efforts to create a space that supports the respect for and healing of our most vulnerable patients.

At nearly $12 million, the cost of making physical improvements to enhance the healing environments in behavioral health and infusion services is significant. While St. Mary’s has developed an ambitious plan to move forward, substantial community investment is essential for success. The region and our entire state are depending on us. Sources of support will come from philanthropic gifts of at least $6 million and from financing. Numerous naming opportunities are available.
