CoxHealth is pleased to continue expanding and growing to meet the changing needs of our community.

Neuro Trauma Intensive Care Unit Expansion

A 37,000-square-foot, two-story expansion is now complete at the Neuro Trauma Intensive Care Unit at Cox South. 

Construction began in fall 2010 and was completed in October 2011. 

The new unit complements the new Emergency Department by adding 24 critical care patient rooms. The beds are located on the ground floor in the same corridor as Cox South's current critical care beds. The unit extends to the south along National from the current unit. The construction created 27 new beds, but it also involved losing three surgical ICU beds, leaving a net gain of 24. It brings the total number of adult critical care beds to 76.
