Gary, a volunteer with Cancer Navigators and the Harbin Clinic Tony E. Warren Oncology Center, is one of the honorees of the Good Samaritan Award. As a cancer survivor himself, Gary brings a depth of compassion and understanding that immediately puts others at ease. He is always positive, always smiling, and creates a welcoming environment for every patient and family member who walks through the door.

Serving at the front desk, Gary goes far beyond the basics. He anticipates needs, offers encouragement and provides a sense of comfort during what can be an incredibly difficult time. His journey led him to us, and his decision to give back in the very place that supported him speaks volumes.

There is no greater compliment than someone choosing to serve because of the care they once received, and Gary embodies that full circle of compassion in everything he does.

Did you know that taking your eyes off the road for five seconds at 55 mph is like driving the length of a football field blindfolded?

Distracted driving is a leading cause of auto accidents and accounts for 8% of fatal crashes in the U.S.

Keep your eyes on the road. Lives depend on it.

Atrium Health Floyd and Harbin Clinic, along with the Family Resource Center, Advocates for Children and community partners, worked together to plant pinwheels in honor of National Child Abuse Prevention Month.

The pinwheels, planted at Atrium Health Floyd Medical Center and Harbin Clinic Cartersville, symbolize children in our community who are victims of abuse or neglect.

Through the care and commitment of our pediatricians, pediatric teammates, school nurses and the rest of our health care team, we are dedicated to ensuring the safety of children in our community. We invite you to become a child advocate too.

Thank you for helping protect our children💙

For more than 80 years, Atrium Health Floyd has been proud to care for the residents of Chattooga County, building long-standing relationships and making continued investments that support access to care, prevention and overall community well-being.

Today, we serve as the EMS provider for Chattooga County and deliver emergency care through our stand-alone emergency department, a significant investment that ensures 24-hour emergency services close to home. We also provide primary care, urgent care and rehabilitation services, supporting the health of our community at every stage of life.

In recognition of this commitment, Atrium Health Floyd was honored to receive the 2025 Wellness Business of the Year award from the 2026 Chattooga County Chamber of Commerce. 💙

We are proud to partner with Chattooga County and grateful for the relationships that make this community a place we are honored to serve. It was an honor to come together for the Flagpole Dedication Ceremony at the Atrium Health Floyd freestanding emergency department.

Thank you to VFW Post 6688 and the Scout leaders and Scouts from Chattooga County Scouting America Troop 7 for their role in the ceremony and for their continued service to this community.

We also sincerely thank the Chattooga County Chamber of Commerce, our community partners and everyone who joined us for this event.

We are especially proud to provide care and work alongside our local first responders, including fire, law enforcement, and Atrium Health Floyd EMS. Your dedication and partnership help keep Chattooga County safe every day, and we are honored to serve alongside you.

The Atrium Health Floyd Chattooga Emergency Department reflects a longstanding commitment to this community. Atrium Health Floyd has served the health and wellness needs of Chattooga County residents for more than 80 years, with care dating back to 1942. A major milestone was the opening of the standalone emergency department in September 2023, providing 24/7 emergency care and advanced diagnostics, along with Atrium Health Floyd’s assumption of Chattooga County EMS in 2022 and more than $1 million invested in ambulances, station improvements and lifesaving equipment.

We are proud to be a trusted partner and to serve alongside those who care for and protect this community.
