February 17, 2021- JFK Medical Center’s North Campus broke ground in September of 2019 on a $26 million construction project which included expanding the Behavioral Health Pavilion from an 88-bed unit to a 124-bed unit with the addition of 12 adolescent beds and 24 adult beds. On Tuesday, February 16, 2021, hospital leadership celebrated the unit’s completion with a COVID-conscious ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the occasion.
