Quirón Salud has received approval to expand its private hospital in Torrevieja. The company will pay 127,884 euros in construction tax and urban planning license fees for the project. The expansion will include extending the rear walkway connecting buildings, and enlarging the Accident and Emergency Department, Intensive Care Unit, and operating theatres. The total investment is estimated at around 3.18 million euros.
The hospital, built in 1999 on a 25,823 square metre plot, currently uses 17,996 square metres. The remaining space is mainly used for parking, with a small free area at the back. The expansion will affect the La Hoya sector, near the N-332, where a new road will divert vehicles entering Torrevieja from the AP-7 and Crevillente road (CV-905) towards the northern part of the municipality and La Mata.
Torrevieja Council also plans to invest in the plot between Quirón and the N-332 to build an Alzheimer’s care centre, chosen for its proximity to the hospital to provide emergency security. The governing team is finalising details with AFA Torrevieja for the project’s needs assessment.
