Kaiser Permanente plans to invest $1.7 billion in expansion projects at four locations across Riverside County, The Press-Enterprise reports.
The projects include expansions of Kaiser’s Riverside and Moreno Valley hospitals, construction of a second medical office building in Murrieta and a new Wildomar medical office.

The 95-foot high hospital tower will have 152 beds, including 116 single-occupancy rooms and 36 neonatal intensive care unit rooms. Existing double-occupancy rooms will be upgraded and converted to single-patient rooms. The expansion and conversion will increase the total available beds from the current 226 to 298. Read more.
