Duke Health broke ground on a new facility that adds hospital services at its existing Duke Health Cary location, providing access to healthcare closer to the homes and workplaces of the community’s rapidly growing population. 

The new facility will include phase one of a new inpatient hospital campus, including an emergency department, surgical services, imaging and a small number of inpatient beds, as well as gastro-intestinal endoscopy, cancer care and other infusion services in the same building. The building housing these services is expected to be completed in 2027. 

The new hospital services are part of a broader plan for the 85-acre campus at Duke Health Cary. The health system has already received state approval for 40 hospital beds at the location. When fully built, the Cary hospital campus is projected to employ about 1,600 people.
