A transformative chapter unfolds in South Fulton as efforts to dismantle barriers to healthcare accessibility gain momentum with the support of Grady Health. In response to the urgent healthcare needs identified in 2022, legislation was drafted to declare a healthcare state of emergency in Fulton County, addressing the critical issue of a healthcare desert.

The closure of two hospitals served as a catalyst for Grady Health, prompting them to prioritize not just their own sustainability, but the well-being of the entire community. Currently, they are developing only 8 out of 40 acres, having recently acquired an additional 32 acres with the ambitious vision to expand the emergency room into a comprehensive, full-service hospital.

This bold initiative is part of a broader strategy to advance Fulton County over the next two decades, ensuring equitable healthcare for all residents. Stay informed about upcoming developments and engage in planning for the future of healthcare accessibility in Fulton County.
