Anchor Health Properties Commences Expansion Project at PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Dover, Delaware

Dedicated to expanding access to specialized healthcare, Anchor Health Properties (Anchor), a national, full-service healthcare real estate development, management, and investment company focused exclusively on medical outpatient buildings and specialty healthcare facilities, has officially commenced construction on an expansion of the PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital in Dover, Delaware. Located at 1240 McKee Road, the project will add 12 patient beds and 14,000 square feet to the existing facility.

Serving as developer in a fee-for-service capacity, Anchor is providing comprehensive design and construction oversight for the project, working in close coordination with the building’s owner, Sila Realty Trust, Inc. (NYSE: SILA). The facility, a 34 bed, 42,000 square foot inpatient rehabilitation hospital, represents a critical piece of healthcare infrastructure for the region. As the only inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) in Kent County, the hospital offers vital services including physical, occupational, and speech therapies. The project aims to build upon the facility’s success since its 2019 opening and ensure it continues to meet the high demand for specialized care in the state.

"We are pleased to be working alongside Sila Realty Trust on this expansion," shared Barry Travis, Development Director with Anchor Health Properties. "Our focus is on ensuring the project runs smoothly so that the hospital can continue to meet the high demand for specialized services in Dover. We look forward to collaborating with the entire team to deliver a modern environment that supports both the clinical staff and the patients they serve.”

The hospital is currently fully leased to a joint venture between Bayhealth Medical Center, Inc., the second-largest health system in Delaware and a subsidiary of PAM Health, one of the nation’s premier providers of post-acute healthcare.

The project team includes regionally based firms with extensive healthcare facility experience, including Mula Group serving as the architect, Warfel Construction serving as the general contractor, and Becker Morgan Group providing civil engineering services. The expansion is slated for completion in early 2027.
