“Topping-off” beam-signing ceremony for Hospital expansion
Five months after ground was broken for the expansion of The William W. Backus Hospital’s Emergency Department, the final steel beams – some of the more than 200 tons of steel used in the project – were put into place.
The expansion is part of Backus Hospital’s $50-million BackusCare project, which will double the size of the Emergency Department, create more space for surgical services, completely renovate two floors for inpatients, and add a second linear accelerator with the latest treatment for radiation therapy.
