As Russell County Hospital embarks on a major renovation and expansion project, hospital CEO Scott Thompson provided WJRS News with an update on where things stand in the construction process.
The planned expansion project will utilize $10 million in state funds and $10 million in tax credits.
The expansion will nearly double the size of the current hospital. Plans for the expansion include a new operating room, new emergency room, new equipment, a new front lobby registration space and new radiology department, among other improvements.
