Piedmont Columbus Regional To Open Bill and Olivia Amos Children’s Hospital
Piedmont Healthcare (Atlanta) is planning to transform the former Doctors Hospital on the Piedmont Columbus Regional Midtown in Columbus, Ga. The structure will become a freestanding children’s hospital named the Bill and Olivia Amos Children’s Hospital.
The 30-bed project will house a pediatric inpatient unit with several semiprivate sibling rooms. Additionally, the project includes isolation and behavioral safe rooms, a pediatric intensive care unit, and a pediatric intermediate care unit.
Support spaces include an activity room, laundry facilities, food pantry, room service dining, separate discharge area, and an outdoor playground.
A connection corridor linking to the Piedmont Columbus Regional Midtown main hospital is also planned.
The five-floor facility, slated to open in fall 2024, will be funded by a donation from the Bettye and Cecil Cheves family.
