The patient rooms will have built-in capabilities to incorporate new technologies in the future.
This facility will also have a pod-style emergency unit, with 62 examination rooms and a helipad.
For the nursing departments on the inpatient floors, an open core approach will be deployed to promote teamwork, as well as to expand access into the rooms of the patients.
Scheduled to be functional in 2027, this project is part of an upgrade of Atrium Health’s facilities in the region.
