At a Sunday town hall meeting, Nashville General Hospital CEO Joseph Webb explained the hospital’s plans for a new facility once again.

He spoke about the safety-net hospital’s vision to expand women’s health care services, skilled nursing offerings and cancer services, as well as adding behavioral health care services. The hospital first produced a feasibility study in 2018 and found that it should build a new campus rather than renovate its existing campus on D.B. Todd Boulevard. Webb told the Post in March 2023 that he had hoped to be started on the new location by then.
