New ER Proposed in Winston-Salem | Winston–Salem News

from Winston–Salem News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A new $15.9 million freestanding ER is proposed for Winston-Salem, promising 24/7 emergency care on a four-acre site—just four miles from Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center. While supporters tout expanded access, locals are sounding the alarm over traffic, sirens, and questioning the need when the existing hospital is only six minutes away. A public hearing is set for August 18th, with state approval pending—and even then, city and transport permits remain hurdles before a single shovel hits the ground.
