Implementing a CHOC-wide suicide risk screening in our primary and specialty networks, as well as the Julia and George Argyros Emergency Department that screened over 400 patients.
Nearing the final construction phase of the new, nine-story Southwest Tower—opening in summer 2025—to tackle the growing outpatient healthcare needs of our region in one convenient location.
