SAN JOSE — Kaiser Permanente is eyeing what it touts as a “state-of-the-art” new hospital in San Jose that would accommodate more than 300 beds and eventually replace the aging existing hospital, city plans show.
The new hospital would accommodate about 22% more hospital beds than the existing half-century-old medical center that contains 247 beds.“The new state-of-the-art hospital will have 302 beds, which is 55 beds larger than the existing hospital,” Kaiser said in the planning documents. Plus, current building codes require updated clearances for beds and other mobile equipment, improved patient and staff safety, better lines of sight from nursing stations, increased daylight in rooms, and upgraded operational efficiencies, the proposal indicated.Elevated view of a new Kaiser Permanente medical center at 250 Hospital Parkway in San Jose, concept.

“The energy center is designed as an all-electric facility and will provide heating, cooling and hot water to the new hospital without the use of natural gas,” the Kaiser proposal stated. A state law known as SB 1953 requires that hospitals undergo seismic upgrades or be replaced by 2030. Kaiser determined that it didn’t make sense to attempt to upgrade the existing medical center.
