Construction finishing up at new Altru Hospital in Grand Forks
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (KVRR) – Altru Hospital in Grand Forks has taken a big step towards transitioning to their new facility.
The main construction on the new hospital has been completed, with contractors finishing up construction as hospital staff prepare to move into the new space.
Over the next few months hospital staff will be training to get familiar with the space before the full transition on January 19th, 2025.
Altru CFO Derek Goebel says that the completion of the project has been a proud moment for everyone involved.
“It’s something that personally I’ve been involved with since we started this project back in 2017 when we started our master planning. But there’s hundreds of folks who have touched this project in some way, and it’s really an honor to be able to do this for the community.”
After the transition has been completed, Altru will begin preparing the old hospital for its eventual demolition.
