The 10-story, 702,000-square-foot hospital includes 373 beds, with each of nine floors having about 30 private rooms. It also includes 47 emergency department treatment spaces, state-of-the art operating rooms, and dedicated elevators that keep patients, visitors, and hospital operations separate.
MVHS is working with Oneida County and the City of Utica to explore options for the St. Luke’s and St. Elizabeth campuses once they are empty.
