Providence, Kaiser Permanente Announce New Victorville Hospital

As mentioned in the Victorville Daily Press, June 3, 2021, Kaiser Permanente and Providence Southern California are partnering to bring a new hospital to the High Desert, with an anticipated 2026 opening. In a statement, Providence officials say the new hospital, which is pending regulatory review and approval, will be located in Victorville and include about 260 beds. Erik G. Wexler, president of Operations and Strategy for Providence — South, told the Daily Press the 98-acre location is situated west of Interstate 15 on Amargosa Road, between Bear Valley Road in Victorville and Main Street in Hesperia. Wexler said it will be a full-service, acute care facility. He said the property will likely include the hospital, a medical office building and possibly other ambulatory services. The estimated price tag of the new Providence-operated hospital is $750 million, according to Wexler, who said the cost “still needs to be perfected through the design and development process.”
