The movement of patients is one that the staff said they have tested and planned for quite some time.
The first steps of the moving process started in August when departments and equipment were moved into the new inpatient towers. Then, beginning at 4 a.m. Wednesday, patients were moved from the old hospital on Chester Boulevard to the new one.
Staff moved two patients at a time from a particular unit until all units were empty.
Staff members who were involved in the move felt that everything went smoothly.
