The Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital is currently in the construction phase, which began fall of 2006 and is scheduled for completion in 2010. The Children’s Hospital will be a state-of-the-art healthcare facility with 13-stories dedicated to pediatric care. It will include neo-natal and pediatric intensive care units, patient rooms, emergency room, radiology department, and surgery/procedure rooms.

The building was designed to maximize efficiency and convenience for the users, while minimizing the impact on the environment. There were also many sustainable techniques considered and decided on for the project as Spectrum Health plans to seek LEED Silver certification for the building.
