We are thrilled to celebrate the opening of the Delores Barr Weaver Heart and Vascular Pavilion, which officially opened its doors on May 1.

Mrs. Weaver, along with countless other generous donors, made this $55 million pavilion possible. It includes 30 medical and surgical rooms as well as 30 intensive care rooms in its 58,000 square feet.

Virginia Hall, president of Ascension St. Vincent’s Foundation, said this innovative pavilion will now be part of Mrs. Weaver’s legacy of love, hope, and healing.

“The Delores Barr Weaver Heart and Vascular Pavilion is a critical part of Ascension St. Vincent’s dedication to meeting the community’s need for specialty cardiovascular care,” Hall said. “Cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States – and we’re grateful that Mrs. Weaver has recognized the importance of providing our team with more resources to treat patients battling heart disease.”

On behalf of the entire Foundation team, we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Mrs. Weaver and all of our donors who made this capital improvement possible!
