Med Center Health to Break Ground on New Facility Housing Women and Children’s Services

Med Center Health will soon break ground on a new facility to be built at its Bowling Green campus.

High Street Tower is a new five-story patient care tower housing the Women & Children’s Services at Med Center Health.

Providing Advanced Care

Two floors in the new facility will feature expanded space for ante-partum, labor and delivery, cesarean suites, post-partum, and an emergency department dedicated solely to obstetrical patients.

The Women & Children’s Services space will also house the region’s only Level III neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).

Other floors will allow for future expansion of the emergency department, surgery, endoscopy, and additional medical and surgical beds.

“The new tower will offer an amazing environment for our mothers and babies while also creating space to serve the future healthcare needs of our growing communities for years to come,” said Connie Smith, President and CEO of Med Center Health. “This project will enable Med Center Health to continue offering the most advanced care and services in Southcentral Kentucky.”

The groundbreaking will be held on Thursday, June 13th at 11:00 a.m.

The ceremony, hosted by Med Center Health and the Bowling Green Area Chamber of Commerce, will be held at the green space adjacent to The Medical Center’s Emergency Department parking lot (High Street and E. 4th Avenue).

The project is expected to be complete by summer 2026.
