The health care needs of this community are growing, and St. Francis hospital is stepping up to meet those needs. In September 2009, the hospital announced plans to expand its facility in a continued effort to bring world-class health care to Columbus. This expansion will benefit the community with a higher quality of care, more comfortable facilities and increased safety.

The St. Francis renovation and expansion projects are scheduled to begin in early 2010 and be completed by the end of 2011.
