The new hospital would be located at 9th Street SE, and construction is said to begin in spring 2026. The site has a targeted opening of spring/summer 2028.
Once the new hospital opens, Carilion Roanoke Community Hospital will cease operation of its existing 34-bed acute rehabilitation unit.
“This new hospital is an investment in strengthening and growing physical rehabilitation services in our region, and it’s made possible through the skill, dedication and compassion that our Inpatient Rehabilitation team brings to our patients every day. We’re grateful for everything our team has shared with us about the best ways for us to elevate patient care and look forward to Select Medical’s resources, knowledge, and expertise boosting the care we provide to our community and helping us serve even more patients who need rehabilitative care.”
Mike Abbott, president of Carilion Medical Center
