Christ Hospital to utilize old Drawbridge Inn site

The Christ Hospital Health Network has plans to redevelop the former Drawbridge Inn site in Fort Mitchell. The 75,000-square-foot medical office building will be part of a larger, mixed-used development.
 
The project is still in the very early planning stages, and there is no set date for construction to begin.
 
“The former Drawbridge Inn site presents an exceptional opportunity for us to expand our presence in Northern Kentucky and provide more choice and access for consumers,” says Mike Keating, president and CEO of The Christ Hospital Health Network.
 
The City of Fort Mitchell wants to create a community with easy access to residential, retail and medical offices. The new facility will bring new jobs to the city and offer additional health amenities.
 
The Christ Hospital Health Network is working with Brandicorp on the construction of The Christ Hospital Outpatient Center in Montgomery, which is scheduled to open in spring 2015. Brandicorp is also leading the redevelopment of the Drawbridge Inn site.
 
The Christ Hospital Health Network currently has its Outpatient Center in Fort Wright, which offers primary care; cardiovascular care; diabetes and endocrinology; a foot and ankle clinic; gynecology; orthopaedics and sports medicine; urology; urogynecology and pelvic floor medicine; wound healing; pre-surgery testing; and imaging services. Services are still being reviewed for the new facility.
 
Other Northern Kentucky locations include Crestview Hills (hematology and oncology; obstetrics and gynecology; and certified nurse midwives) and Fort Mitchell (primary care).
