Wellstar Closing ER, Hospital Beds at Struggling East Point Site, Still Seeks Partner
Monday, April 11th, 2022
Wellstar Health System in recent years has been exploring options — including a sale or partnership — for its Atlanta Medical Center and an affiliate hospital in East Point. A different option unfolded Wednesday: Wellstar announced that it’s converting the 200-bed East Point hospital into a primary care, outpatient and rehabilitation center.
The ER and hospital beds will close May 6. The AMC South facility now runs the closest emergency department to Hartsfield Jackson Atlanta International Airport. See more here.
