Bronson Healthcare opened its new $22 million, 52,000-square-foot South Haven Hospital.
Bronson Healthcare President and CEO Bill Manns said on Tuesday that the new facility is a $22 million investment in advancing the health and well-being of patients and families in South Haven and the surrounding region.
“The inpatient and outpatient care provided here will be second to none and will attract new providers and staff to this community for generations to come,” Manns said.
The two-story facility is located directly east of the existing hospital and is accessible from both Blue Star Highway and Bailey Avenue. A large, two-story lobby greets patients, families and staff and offers multiple amenities, including a café, gift shop, greeter station and convenient registration area with private bays.

Bronson Cancer Center in downtown Kalamazoo opened its doors and is now providing outpatient treatment for adult patients from across the region.
The five-story, 85,000-square-foot facility with offices and clinical areas for medical oncology, hematology and infusion services took just under two years to build. Planning began in 2018 after it was determined these services, previously located at the West Michigan Cancer Center (WMCC), would transition back to the hospital’s campus in 2021.
As a result, each patient is now able to have their cancer care coordinated within the Bronson Healthcare system along with other medical services they receive there. This enhances communication between providers and patients and allows all visits to be documented in one central electronic health record to ensure the best possible care for each patient.
