The Richmond region continues to grow and thrive, and we are proud to ensure that exceptional emergency care grows right alongside it,” Jensen said in his remarks. The 24/7 facilities provide hospital-level care and are intended to reduce wait times for emergency care in hospitals. When the trio of new locations open, HCA will have 11 emergency care centers in the Old Dominion. Also in the Richmond region, HCA announced plans this week to spend $5 million to open three urgent care centers over the next two years, which would bring its urgent care arm to 15 locations statewide. HCA entered the local urgent care business in 2022 with the acquisition of BetterMed, and the locations were rebranded to CareNow.
