Staff Report
WINSTON-SALEM Patients and visitors will soon notice work taking place to prepare for the new $450 million care tower at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center.
The project includes an upgraded emergency department, state-of-the-art operating rooms and enhanced adult intensive care units and is the next step in a series of significant investments in the Triad as a result of Wake Forest Baptist Health’s strategic combination with Atrium Health.
The care tower will be built where Parking Deck B currently stands. Before this parking deck can be taken down, two helipads will be built on the top of Parking Deck C, near the emergency department and the Comprehensive Cancer Center, to accommodate medical helicopters from Wake Forest Baptist’s AirCare, and those from other hospitals and air ambulance providers.
