The Saint Thomas Rutherford completed its vertical expansion in June 2020 adding an additional 72 beds. With the addition of the satellite hospital, Ascension Saint Thomas will continue to support a strong system of care for Rutherford County.

Construction of the neighborhood hospital is expected to begin in Fall 2020 with an expected completion in early 2022.
