Northwest Healthcare announced Tuesday that a new "neighborhood hospital" will soon open in Sahuarita.

According to a press release from Northwest Healthcare, if approved, the hospital will open in late 2019.

The facility will have 18 beds and will be located just south and east of Sahuarita Road and I-19.

Planned services include an emergency room and two operating rooms. The second floor of the facility will house medical offices with planned services to include primary care, cardiology, orthopedics and general surgery. We anticipate having approximately 150 staff members throughout the health campus, Northwest Healthcare said.

This expansion is part of Northwest Healthcare's "No Boundaries" strategy that includes $150 million of expansion projects.
