Was building a new facility in the Iowa Quad-Cities a duplication of services?
Trinity now offers health-care services previously unavailable to residents in Bettendorf, including an emergency department and birthing services. This area is undergoing tremendous growth, and Trinity is responding to the increasing health-care needs of the community. Projections show continued growth in Bettendorf and northeastern Scott County during the coming 20 years. In the Iowa Quad-Cities, high patient volumes have occasionally resulted in restricting admissions or surgical procedures. The new hospital greatly reduces the need for hospital bypass in the future.
