Palmyra Medical Center CEO Mark Rader is happy these days. The hospital has started to see growth on a number of levels with regard to traffic and the expansion of facilities.

In all, Palmyra has roughly $4 million in expansion projects coming into fruition before the end of the year. One of those projects includes a renovated pediatrics unit, which has been in the design and construction phases for several months.“It’s designed to give a comfortable feeling for children, teens and their families,” Rader said.

There will be an open house on the floor in the coming weeks. Once operational, it will include Wi-Fi and lactation areas for parents to utilize. “It will be an exciting unit and we are looking forward to its opening,” Rader said.
