Novant Health’s Certificate of Need application has received approval from the South Carolina Department of Public Health for the construction of a new 20-bed hospital in Greenville, US.
The planned facility is set to be outpatient-focused, offering a variety of services to address the community’s increasing healthcare requirements while enhancing access to cost-effective care.
The hospital is designed to encompass operating rooms, speciality services and diagnostic imaging, with the capability to expand in response to future healthcare demands.
Novant Health senior vice-president Jason Bernd said: “As one of the fastest-growing areas in the state, Greenville deserves expanded access to high-quality care close to home. This new hospital will allow us to deliver on that promise for patients who live in Greenville and the surrounding communities.”
With the hospital project, Novant Health aims to bolster its footprint in South Carolina through the construction of new facilities, the recruitment of medical experts, and the provision of patient-centric care.
Additionally, the nonprofit health system will be able to further extend its services, ensuring they are customised to meet the specific requirements of each community. This encompasses comprehensive care coordination throughout the region.
