  Kennedy – Washington Township’s new 15, 324 square-foot Surgical Suite has seven new ORs, ranging in size from 570-square feet to 709-square feet, with two more slated to open later this year. Each OR features the latest technological advances, including a system that will allow for “parallel processing” to expedite surgical cases more efficiently.
