Holston Valley Medical Center
Partnering with and serving the Kingsport community for more than 70 years, Holston Valley Medical Center houses one of Tennessee’s only six Level I trauma centers—equipped to care for the most critically injured patients—while its Level III neonatal intensive care unit heals the region’s sickest babies. Project Platinum, a $113 million renovation of the facility completed in 2010, features the latest healthcare design and innovations, including a new intensive care unit, new operating suites, expanded emergency and radiology departments, additional parking areas and a new grand entrance drive and bridge to provide improved hospital access.
