St. Charles Bend to close north hospital entrances and parking lot H Oct. 5
BEND, Ore. — To grow the number of critical care and inpatient beds available to care for the community, St. Charles Bend is constructing a three-story patient tower on the north side of its campus.
Starting Thursday, Oct. 5, parking lot H will be closed to vehicular and pedestrian traffic to allow for the next stage of construction and to ensure the safety of patients, visitors and caregivers.
This means all north hospital entrances—including lower-level rehab—will be closed for the duration of the construction project, which is expected to be completed in spring 2019. Designated MRI and rehab patient parking is now in parking lot F, and patients and visitors should plan to enter the hospital at the main entrance.

St. Charles thanks the community for its patience during this project.
