Changes to Our Hospital
Unit relocations at Charlton Campus: 5 MG (ALC) and 6 JIT (CTU N)
Updated February 16, 2022 at 9:10 a.m.
During the third wave, St. Joe’s began using the ICU West space for additional critical care capacity as a short-term solution. Over the past few months, we have been preparing to create a permanent space to accommodate increased critical care capacity.
At the same time, we have closely examined the suitability of our physical environments for patient populations in critical care, general internal medicine and post-acute care. This is an opportunity for us to better align our clinical spaces with the needs of our patients, while also relocating units with similar patient populations in closer proximity to one another to support efficiency and best care practices.
As of February 15, the following changes have occurred as part of the first stage of the move:
- 6 JIT (currently CTU North) has become an ALC unit, with staff and patients from ALC unit 5 MG moving to 6 JIT.
- CTU North staff and patients have moved to 5 MG.
- This places the GIM CTU units in closer geographical proximity.
- CTU East patents have moved to CTU Central to support the construction needed for ICU surge space.
- The GIM units will no longer be referred to as CTU Central, West and North, but are now named according to their geographic location. The 5 MG ALC unit has also be renamed to reflect its new location.
| Current Name | New Name |
| 5 ALC |
ALC 6 Tower |
| CTU North |
CTU 6 MG |
| CTU West |
CTU 4MG |
| CTU Central |
CTU 4BD |
The COVID Unit will remain on CTU Central at this time.
Phone and fax numbers for these units will remain the same.
Further staff and patient movement are planned for March as part of the second stage of the move. More information on the second stage will be shared in the coming weeks.
