Kurt Stuenkel, president of Atrium Health Floyd, says that he is “feeling good” about the hospital’s prospects concerning a free-standing emergency room in Chattooga County.
The local paper reported yesterday that Stuenkel spoke to the local Rotary Club and said that the organization is still in the process of securing the necessary state permitting to build the facility. It won’t be the first free-standing ER for the organization, but it will be the first one that Atrium Health has built in Georgia.
Chattooga County Commissioner Blake Elsberry is supporting the efforts of Atrium Health Floyd. Elsberry believes the twenty-six acres close to Walmart in Trion could see more development if the free-standing ER is built.
Elsberry is a former employee of what is now Atrium Health Floyd.
