Facilities

Ose Adams Medical Pavilion

The 274-bed specialty medical center focuses on general acute medical/surgical care as well as a medical base to advanced services for cancer, orthopedics, spine, and neurology and neurosurgery.^[3] Sutter Hospital originally opened on the site of the current Buhler Specialty Pavilion in 1923 as California's largest and most advanced hospital at the time. Sutter General Hospital was constructed in 1987, went through a complete renovation from 2010-2015 while continuing to care for patients, and it was renamed the Ose Adams Medical Pavilion on August 8, 2015.^[4] Ose Adams is also the site for Sutter's emergency services, including a children's-only emergency waiting room and department.

Ose Adams Medical Pavilion is currently the home for in-patient services of the Sutter Orthopaedic Institute, Sutter Heart & Vascular Institute, Sutter Neuroscience Institute and Sutter Cancer Center.

Anderson Lucchetti Women's and Children's Center

The Anderson Lucchetti Women's and Children's Center is a 242-bed specialty center for pediatrics and women's services, including the labor of pregnant women and delivery of newborns.^[5] The Women's and Children's Center was built as part of the massive expansion of services and opened on August 8, 2015 after patients were moved to the new facility from Sutter Memorial Hospital, where nearly 350,000 babies were born since opening in 1937.^[6] The 10-story building exclusively holds single patient rooms except for the NICU, where spaces are built to allow more privacy for families and their infants. At part of the expansion, NFL Hall of Famer Steve Young donated $150,000 to open a music therapy center called Sophie's Place, in honor of Sophie Barton.^[7]

Expansion

The new campus features the new Anderson Lucchetti Women’s and Children’s Center, a 242-bed, 10-story building. It also features a helistop on the roof just off Capital City Freeway, which allows helicopters to transport severely injured and sick patients for treatment, mostly newborn and pediatric patients.

Now fully renovated, Sutter General Hospital has been renamed the Ose Adams Medical Pavilion – a five-story, 257-bed facility that includes 24 operating rooms, two new cardiac cath labs, two new electrophysiology labs, five angiography rooms, 106 recovery beds, state-of-the-art digital Imaging Department, emergency services expansion with larger waiting areas, more treatment rooms, and dedicated CT scanner and other imaging equipment, and the addition of a children-only emergency room, and the new home of Sutter Heart and Vascular Institute, in addition to tertiary services including orthopedics, neuroscience, bariatrics and oncology.

It includes a six-room outpatient surgery suite, 40 recovery beds and non-invasive cardiology and medical offices – and valet services for patients.
