$84 Million Hospital Expansion Underway

Cabell Huntington Hospital broke ground today for its North Patient Tower, an $84 million project that will double the size of the emergency room and nearly double the percentage of single-patient rooms at the hospital.

The five-story building will be constructed on the site where the Cabell-Huntington Health Department stood just a few months ago. It also will house labor and delivery and neonatal intensive care, making room for expansions of pediatric services in the original facility.
