Baldwin Health Completes Expansion Product With Atrium Dedication

Baldwin Health hospital marked the completion of its latest major expansion project with the dedication of the Wayne T. Smith Atrium. The atrium includes the Foley hospital’s main entrance and lobby area. The project was the latest stage in the facility’s recent $200-million expansion that included a five-story patient tower with surgical facilities, a dedicated women’s and children’s unit and additional inpatient beds to accommodate more patients. The atrium was named for Wayne T. Smith, chairman of the Board of Directors for Community Health Systems, which has operated the hospital since 2000. The hospital has a team of 1,200 employees and a network of medical clinics. It serves the community through more than 409,000 patient encounters annually.
