Rappahannock General Hospital Invests in Upgrades While Ensuring Local Care

Rappahannock General Hospital officials say the facility remains strong and is not at risk of closing while continuing major investments in technology and services. Hospital administrators highlighted $3.2 million in renovations, a new outpatient infusion center, and a $1.8 million CT scanner upgrade, improving care for stroke patients and others.
Officials stressed that most patients are treated locally, with only a small number needing transfers, and new programs like Project Voyager use AI to streamline medical documentation. RGH also plans a $10 million geothermal upgrade, making it the first in Virginia and the Bon Secours system. Hospital leaders say community support and matching funds from Bon Secours ensure the hospital will remain a vital part of the region.
