New facility expands emergency care access along the I-90 corridor in Rapid City
RAPID CITY, S.D., (June 10, 2026) – Monument Health today opened the doors of its new free-standing Emergency Department at 1911 East Mall Drive in Rapid City, bringing high-quality emergency care closer to the communities along the Interstate 90 corridor. The facility marks the first completed phase of the Monument Health Emergency Services and Medical Campus and represents a significant investment in the long-term health infrastructure of the Black Hills region.
The one-story, 16,750 square-foot Emergency Department is equipped with full laboratory services, X-ray and CT scan capabilities, a covered ambulance garage, one trauma room, eight emergency exam rooms and two inpatient rooms. The facility is staffed by board-certified emergency medicine physicians, the same standard Monument Health pioneered at Rapid City Hospital.
“As emergency medicine specialists, we are proud to bring the same level of expert care available at Rapid City Hospital to this new location,” said Brook Eide, M.D., Emergency Department Chair at Monument Health. “This facility allows us to provide critical emergency services to more patients, closer to where they live and work. Every minute matters in emergency medicine, and this campus is going to make a real difference for this community.”
This new emergency department serves a rapidly growing area of Rapid City and provides residents and visitors along the I-90 corridor with immediate access to life-saving emergency care.
“This location and facility allows Monument Health space and infrastructure to continue growing to meet the needs of our community,” said Paulette Davidson, Monument Health President and CEO. “The campus was designed with the future in mind, with room for additional buildings and services as our community’s needs evolve. We are committed to being here for this community for generations to come.”
