McLeod Health Carolina Forest is pleased to announce the fifth anniversary of its Emergency Department, a milestone that marks half a decade of providing critical, life-saving services to the community. Since opening in October 2019, the Emergency Department has been dedicated to delivering high-quality care and responding to the urgent medical needs of patients.

Over the past five years, the McLeod Health Carolina Forest Emergency Department has handled more than 65,000 patient visits, demonstrating a strong commitment to timely and effective emergency medical services. The team of skilled healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, and support staff, has worked tirelessly to ensure that patients receive the highest quality of care in their most critical moments.

“The Emergency Department at McLeod Health Carolina Forest continues to provide the highest quality emergent care in one of the fastest growing markets in South Carolina,” said Scott Montgomery, CEO of McLeod Health Carolina Forest and McLeod Health Loris. “Our physicians and teams focus daily on providing faster, improved emergency care for Carolina Forest and surrounding areas. We look forward to continuing to grow as our communities grow.” 

The Carolina Forest campus is undergoing major construction as the McLeod Health Carolina Forest hospital project is underway. Anticipated completion for the 48-bed hospital is scheduled for 2026.
