Summary

Fairview’s long wait for local emergency care is finally over—two new freestanding ERs are coming, bringing critical services just minutes away from home. Ascension Saint Thomas and TriStar Horizon each invested over $20 million, approved by state regulators, to serve a community that’s grown 36% since 2011. Residents like Kristi Pinkham, who raced her son to a distant ER, are thrilled—over a thousand locals even wrote in support. Both facilities will offer labs, imaging, and trauma care, with Ascension’s adding outpatient services to its campus. Groundbreaking isn’t tomorrow, but for Fairview, this is life-saving progress right at home. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
