On Wednesday, April 10, at 6:45 p.m., St.Vincent Fishers Hospital welcomed the first baby born at the faith-based hospital. Jeremiah James Frazier was born at 8 lbs, 10 oz.and 20 inches long. Parents, Stanley and Chanda Frazier reside in Fishers.

Jeremiah is Chanda’s fourth child.

While proud, Chanda said she was surprised Jeremiah was the first baby born at the new St.Vincent location.

She said she wasn’t due for another three weeks, but Jeremiah is quite healthy.

On Monday, April 8, St.Vincent Vincent Fishers Hospital opened to the public after a 110,000-square foot expansion was completed to create a 50-bed inpatient facility. The hospital is located at 1391 Southeastern Parkway.

The new hospital focuses on wellness, women’s health and family health. It encompasses 30 medical/surgical beds, 10 labor-delivery-recovery-post-partum beds and 10 observation beds. In addition, the three-story hospital has spa-like amenities, indoor and outdoor dining, and convenient 24-hour room service for patients.

The St.Vincent team is actively in the pursuit to secure Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) certification for Fishers Hospital. St.Vincent is the first hospital in Indiana and the 17th in the nation to register for the LEED certification process.

In 2008, the faith-based health system opened Indiana’s first freestanding emergency department at the Fishers location. In addition, the facility has an ambulatory surgery center, all-digital imaging center, and a medical office building including primary care offices, a pediatric and adult sleep disorders center, rehabilitation, laboratory and mental health services.
