It was the first all-private-room hospital in North Carolina.[1] It is home to a women's center, a cardiovascular services department, and a critical care unit. A subunit of the hospital, known as Nash Day Hospital, opened in 1984 as a free-standing outpatient surgery center.[2] The hospital also operates the Bryant T.
