Dothan, Ala. — Southeast Health is making temporary changes to emergency room access as construction continues on its Emergency Department and Patient Tower expansion.
Beginning Monday, March 16, patients arriving by private vehicle will need to enter the hospital through a covered walking tunnel located in the West Parking Garage. The garage sits next to the Women’s Center on the Southeast Health campus.
Hospital officials say all patient drop-offs and pick-ups for the emergency room will now take place inside the West Parking Garage. Security officers will be stationed in the area to assist patients and visitors.
Officials said the change is part of the ongoing expansion project and will remain in place throughout construction. The hospital’s Emergency Department and Patient Tower project is expected to continue into 2028.
Southeast Health says the changes are necessary as the facility grows to better serve patients across the Wiregrass region.
