Document Description
UCLA Health proposes to convert the west, east, and north units of the fourth floor of Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center from “Behavioral Health” to “General Medical and General Surgical Acute Care” spaces to better meet current demands for acute medical care by expanding inpatient bed capacity. The Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center Fourth Floor Patient Care Reconfiguration project would accommodate approximately 103 beds in 90 rooms, representing a net increase of 29 beds or 6 percent, to alleviate ongoing over-capacity conditions along with taking a substantially similar number of behavioral health beds off-line.
