The new facility will be built with 50 beds to start with plans to expand to 100 beds.
Novant Health has announced plans to build a new full-service, community hospital campus in Bluffton as part of a major healthcare hub to increase access to health care in South Carolina’s Lowcountry region. The expansion is designed to meet the holistic healthcare needs of the community in the long-term.
Designed with growth in mind, the future Novant Health Bluffton Medical Center will be built with 50 beds to start with plans to expand to 100 beds, as the growing needs of the community increase in the years to come. The hospital will include medical, surgical, emergency and trauma services, in addition to intensive care, labor and delivery, cardiology, neurology and orthopedics, as well as other medical specialties identified as needed in the area. Necessary regulatory approval documents will be submitted in the coming weeks.
Additionally, Novant Health is planning several outpatient campuses in Bluffton, including a new free-standing emergency department, surgery centers, imaging services, urgent care, primary care and specialty care. The health system will bring an estimated 1,000 new jobs to the region and recruit a significant new healthcare workforce to accommodate the expansion plans.
