About WakeMed's Proposal:

On August 15, WakeMed submitted a certificate of need (CON) application to the North Carolina Division of Health Service Regulation (DHSR) to add 41 acute care beds at North Healthplex. A decision is expected by January 31, 2009. Acquiring these beds would allow WakeMed to transition North Healthplex into Wake County’s first and only full-service women’s hospital. The hospital would offer birthing, women’s services, and surgery, in addition to its existing emergency, imaging and laboratory services. The hospital would include 61 total acute care beds, which includes the 20 for which we have already received CON approval.

Show WakeMed Your Support for Wake County’s First Women’s Hospital

We need your help once again to let the state know how important it is to the northern Wake County community that the 41 beds available in Wake County be approved to be added to WakeMed North Healthplex.

On Monday, October 20 a public hearing will be held at the Lighthouse Convention Center on Tryon Road in Raleigh starting at 1:00 pm in the afternoon. This is your opportunity to voice your support for North Healthplex. We encourage you to attend to help us visually demonstrate what the new beds would mean to the northern Wake County.
