Carondelet Marana Hospital Now Open

Neighborhood hospital located near I-10 and Cortaro exit

 

MARANA – Carondelet Marana Hospital is now open to serve the communities of the northwest Tucson area. More than 100 local leaders attended a preview and ribbon cutting event earlier this year, hosted by the Marana Chamber of Commerce and Carondelet Health Network.

 

Located near the I-10 and Cortaro exit at 5620 W. Cortaro Farms Rd., Carondelet Marana Hospital offers around-the-clock emergency physician, general surgery and hospitalist physician coverage.

The new hospital focuses on providing emergency care and surgical procedures with convenience and efficiency in a neighborhood setting. Like its larger Carondelet sister hospitals, it includes a 24/7 emergency department, an operating room, diagnostic imaging, laboratory and other services.

“We are anxious to begin providing care for our neighbors and friends,” said Kate Schneider, administrative director for Carondelet Marana Hospital. “This is an exciting opportunity for Carondelet Health Network to introduce this new model of care in Marana.”

Carondelet Marana Hospital created approximately 40 full-time equivalent clinical and support staff jobs, according to Schneider.
