ChristianaCare and Tower Health completed the acquisition for former Jennersville Hospital in West Grove of $8 million, writes John George for the Philadelphia Business Journal

The hospital that closed on Dec. 31 will be known as the ChristianaCare West Grove Campus after it reopens. While the exact timeline for reopening of the community medical center has not yet been disclosed by the Delaware health system, it was noted that it will take “some time.” 

“We are excited to have this opportunity to reimagine health care at the ChristianaCare West Grove Campus,” said Dr. Janice E. Nevin, ChristianaCare’s CEO. “We are here as long-term partners in supporting a healthy southern Chester County community.” 

Tower Health and ChristianaCare announced last month they had reached an agreement for the hospital building, as well as Tower Health’s interest in two office buildings and a 24-acre parcel of land next to the hospital. 

According to Dr. Heather Farley, ChristianaCare’s chief wellness officer and co-lead for the campus development strategy, the main goal for the new owner will be to re-establish local access to emergency services. 

“We’ve heard loud and clear that this is what the community most urgently needs,” said Farley.
