Additional services within the system span residential and outpatient mental health facilities, home health and hospice programs, mammography centers, a sleep disorders center, a wound care and hyperbaric medicine center, and the Central Virginia Center for Simulation and Virtual Learning. The hospital itself operates under a multi-year Modernization Plan launched in March 2023 that combines facility investments with technology, process, and operational improvements. Lab orders for walk-in outpatients are accepted Monday through Friday from 7 am to 7 pm and on Saturday from 8 am to noon. The American College of Cardiology has recognized the hospital with the 2026 Chest Pain - MI Registry Platinum award.
