Emory Johns Creek Hospital celebrated the completion of its expansion with two new floors, a new parking deck and 40 more beds.

The expansion at Emory Johns Creek Hospital includes large windows to allow in natural daylight, LED lighting and controls, and low-emitting interior finishes. The sixth floor is now home to 40 medical, surgical and oncology patient rooms and three nurses’ stations, while the fifth floor houses office and additional shell space, the hospital said.

"It was a great honor to join the celebration of the Emory Johns Creek Hospital's new expansion today. The hospital is opening a sixth floor featuring 40 new oncology, medical and intermediate patient beds, along with three new nurses’ stations. The project broke ground in June 2020 and adds approximately 70,000 square feet to the existing patient tower," Rep. Angelika Kausche said on Facebook.
