Atrium Health began construction on a $450 million care tower on the campus of Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
For the past six months, crews have been removing a parking deck, completing the new helipad and preparing the site for construction.
The care tower will include an upgraded emergency department, operating rooms and enhanced adult intensive care units. In addition, larger and brighter rooms with more natural light and increased privacy, along with new outdoor green space, will help promote wellness and healing and reduce stress on patients, their families and staff.
The project is the first in a series of investments as a result of Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist’s strategic combination with Atrium Health.
