Reston Hospital Center has committed $70 million to a series of new initiatives that are expected to roll out over the next three years.
Building off of a multi-year expansion of the hospital’s campus near Reston Town Center that finished in early 2020, the projects aim to “expand service capacity, modernize facilities, and introduce state-of-the-art technologies to help meet the growing healthcare needs in the region,” the HCA Virginia Health System, which includes Reston Hospital, said today (Wednesday) in a press release.

Gulf Shores and Orange Beach city officials and stakeholders had the opportunity to get a first look at the completed South Baldwin Regional Medical Center Freestanding Emergency Department in Gulf Shores May 12. While the facility is complete it is not yet open to the public. Administrators are waiting for the clinical survey by the state of Alabama but hope to be open by Memorial Day.
The interior of the 14,000 square foot facility has been decorated to reflect the area with coastal artwork and a beachy color palette. When patients walk through the front entrance, a check-in area will direct patients to the Emergency Room waiting area or the Outpatient waiting area. Patients needing lab work, x-rays, mammography or other imaging can come to the facility instead of going to the Foley campus. The lab and imaging are staffed 24 hours a day.
