Big things are taking shape inside Weems!

Construction is underway on a new, dedicated CT suite - bringing updated, state-of-the-art imaging technology inside the hospital.

While we’ve been proud to offer CT services through a mobile unit, this upgrade means improved access, efficiency, and comfort for our patients.

We’ll be sharing more as we get closer to completion!

A small detail that makes a difference.

Thanks to Allison Greene, a Florida State University student and Big Bend Hospice volunteer, a hospice room at Weems now features hand-painted ceiling tiles designed to bring a sense of calm and comfort.

This room is what’s known as a General Inpatient (GIP) hospice room - a space where patients can receive short-term, around-the-clock care to help manage pain and symptoms when they need a higher level of support.

It’s a simple but powerful reminder that thoughtful touches matter - especially in moments when patients and families need it most.

We’re thankful for volunteers like Allison who share their time and talent with our community. 💙
