Lady of California Maria Shriver and Sister of Charity
of Leavenworth Marie Madeleine Shonka celebrated in Santa
Monica along with hundreds of Saint John's Health Center's
supporters and benefactors who attended the dedication
of the hospital's new North Pavilion inpatient facility
Oct. 7. Shriver, who gave birth to all of her children
at Saint John's, was on hand to view the baby nursery
named in her honor. Services at the 150-room inpatient
facility include critical care, labor and delivery, neonatal
intensive care and general surgery. Patients will be admitted
to the 200,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art medical facility
within the next few weeks. In addition to Bruce Lamoureux,
Saint John's Heath Center's CEO, and other hospital officials,
guests attending the dedication included State Senator
Sheila Kuehl, Los Angeles County Supervisor Zev Yaroslovsky
and Santa Monica Mayor Richard Bloom. |
