Watch a Video Tour of Westwood's New Hospital

HackensackUMC at Pasack Valley CEO Chad Melton recently sat down with a crew from WCTV for an interview and took them on a tour of the soon-to-open hospital.

The hospital's renovations are "99 percent complete," Melton said in the video on Washington Township's local cable channel. They are scheduled to open June 1.

In the video, Melton shows WCTV's crew many of the hospital's new operating rooms, waiting rooms, "Bistro 250" cafe and other renovated areas.

As the opening date approaches, hospital officials are planning to hold some celebratory events, including a community day for the public on May 18 and a visit from Governor Chris Christie May 23, Melton said in the video.

Melton previously told Patch they are already looking forward to future upgrades to the 128-bed hospital after they open, including replacing the existing emergency room, located in the rear side of the hospital, with a new, larger ER in the former obstetrics wing at the front for easier access.
