Piedmont closed the campus’ ED in December 2020 and turned the hospital into isolation beds to help combat COVID-19.
“When the COVID-19 inpatient numbers declined, patients and staff transferred back to main campus and Summerville was maintained as an outpatient campus,” Piedmont said in a May 15 news release.
The first services being rolled out as part of the reopening include a 12-bed inpatient unit, enhanced imaging services and a 24-hour, 15-bed ED.
Outpatient offerings include diabetes, laboratory, wound and hyperbaric services, a renovated occupational medicine suite, a Coumadin clinic, and heart and primary care.
Piedmont is a nonprofit health system that comprises more than 1,400 medical offices and 23 hospitals, according to its LinkedIn page.
