Construction continues on the new Wellstar hospital in Columbia County, located just off the Grovetown exit.
Officials say the new hospital will provide emergency care to the area, eliminating the need for residents to cross county lines for treatment.
The new facility will feature 100 acuity-adaptable inpatient beds, allowing caregivers to meet patients’ needs as their conditions change.
The campus will include a fully equipped emergency department, which is planned to pursue designation as a Level II Trauma Center.
