JOHNSON CITY — UHS opened its new Wilson Main Tower on June 26, wrapping up years of work on the UHS Wilson Medical Campus where the tower will serve as the new “front door” of the facility.
With its location facing Main Street, the Wilson Main Tower streamlines access for all individuals arriving at the medical center including those seeking emergency care. Accessible via Harrison Street, the tower entrance will serve as the primary point of entry for patients and visitors and offers drop-off, pick-up, and valet services. Valet parking is available Monday to Friday from 6 a.m.-6 p.m.
The new emergency department at the Wilson Main Tower can be accessed via Baldwin Street with parking also accessed on the same street. The new emergency department entrance is through the doorway on the first floor of the parking lot. Emergency-department valet parking is also available Monday to Friday from 6 a.m.-6 p.m.
The new front-door design provides a centralized point of entry but also prioritizes patient convenience, making it easier for them to locate their appointments and navigate the campus. UHS ambassadors are on hand to guide patients and visitors to their destination.
The six-story, 183,000-square-foot Wilson Main Tower was the first expansion of the UHS Wilson Medical Center campus in more than 30 years. The $175 million project includes a new trauma center and emergency department, MRI suite, rooftop helipad, surgical support area, and four inpatient units featuring 120 private patient rooms.
Founded in 1981, United Health Services, Inc. (UHS) serves Greater Binghamton and surrounding counties with medical, surgical, rehabilitative, and long-term care services at more than 60 locations including hospitals, primary and specialty centers, retail pharmacy services, senior living, and home care.
