North Carolina is leasing part of a former hospital in Hamlet to use for overflow patients from the state hospitals during the coronavirus pandemic, according to an article on the Greensboro News & Record website.
The former Sandhills Regional Medical Center would be used for non-COVID-19, non-surgical patients who are not critically ill.
The Army Corps of Engineers and the N.C. National Guard are assessing other sites around the state that could be set up as temporary hospitals.
Sandhills has rooms for 49 patients but could take up to 60 or 65 by converting other spaces
