Health System completes phase of Emergency Care Center renovations
Southeast Georgia Health Sys
tem’s Brunwick Campus construction
is one of the most ambitious construc
tion projects in the Health System’s
history. In June construction crews
completed the most recent phase
of the Health System’s Emergency
Room: a nine-bed fast-track area de
signed to provide quick care for those
with less severe injuries, thereby
allowing staff to easily separate pa
tients who are acutely ill from those
who are less sick.
In 2019, a new ambulance en
trance opened leading directly to two
new trauma rooms, exam room and
nurses’ station. Crews also installed
a new, state-of-the-art computerized
tomography (CT) scanner to provide
quick access for trauma and stroke
patients.
The master renovation and con
struction project includes more than
70,000 square feet of new construc
tion and more than 100,000 square
feet of renovations, including a new
surgical services and inpatient tow
er and renovated Emergency Care
Center.
The project will help to ensure the
Brunswick hospital can continue to
meet the health care needs as the
communities it serves grow and pa
tient volumes increase.
Since the start of the project in
2018, construction has steadily pro
gressed. One of the most critical el
ements of the construction project is
the Emergency Care Center (ECC)
expansion. Scheduled for completion
in the summer of 2021, the addi
tion of 12,000 square feet will allow
for 15 more exam/treatment rooms,
bringing the total to 50. However, to
ensure the community continues to
have access to emergency care servic
es during construction, the expansion
is taking place in phases.
“The new space is modernized in
both aesthetics and technology,” said
Stanford “Tripp” O. Stephens III, vice
president, Southeast Georgia Health
System. “It features nine additional
exam rooms, two triage locations, a
results-pending area and an x-ray
room that will allow for faster scans
and more effective, timely treatment.”
The next ECC expansion phase
will include a new main entrance and
reception area. From the new park
ing area, patients will enter directly
into the renovated ECC instead of
through the temporary entrance
used for the past 18 months. That
phase is on track to be complete in
mid-August.
“This renovation is a huge im
provement to our hospital and the
resulting care we’ll be able to pro
vide the community,” said Mohsen
M. Akhlaghi, M.D., FACEP, FAAEM,
Department of Emergency Medicine
Chief, Southeast Georgia Health Sys
tem. “I’ve always been proud to work
for the Health System, but even more
so now. We have the space and tech
nology to better care for the growing
population in our county and sur
rounding areas. This facelift is exact
ly what our Emergency Care Center
needed and deserved.”
