Christiana Care has announced that it will build a neighborhood hospital, or micro-hospital, in Aston Township. The hospital will be located at 700 N. Turner Way, which is directly across Dutton Mill Road from the IceWorks skating facility. The existing building there will be demolished, and a new two-story building will be constructed on the same site. A micro-hospital is a small, licensed healthcare facility that provides a range of medical services to a local community. Micro-hospitals are designed to meet the needs of lower-acuity patients and are often located in underserved areas. They are typically smaller than traditional hospitals and offer services at a lower cost. A conditional use hearing will be held by the township in the near future.
