New Emergency Department entrance opening December 20

Bellevue, Wash. – Starting December 20, 2020, there will be a new entrance to Overlake Medical Center's Emergency Department.

Located off NE 10th St., the new, dedicated Emergency Department entrance allows for quick walk-in access, improved flow for patient drop-offs and direct entry to the underground parking garage.

The new Emergency Department entrance is part of Project FutureCare, Overlake Medical Center's $250 million, five-year campus renewal project. 

The project will grow our campus and service offerings in several significant ways, including:

• A new, five-story inpatient tower featuring a new childbirth center, which comprises labor and delivery, emergency obstetrics, mother and baby unit, and a level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
• Increased bed capacity in medical surgery, oncology, telemetry and orthopedics.
• Two new operating room (OR) suites—one with hybrid OR technology and one state-of-the-art cardiac suite.
• An expanded behavioral health unit.
• A new circle drive leading to the single, main hospital entrance with concourse entry points, enhanced wayfinding and intuitive patient flow.
• Improved ancillary and support services: laboratory, pharmacy, respiratory care.
• Larger, single-patient rooms with dedicated family zones.
• Enhanced patient and family experience.
• 6,500 square-foot interior "meditative" courtyard.
