Almost There: A New Era for Lane is Just Weeks Away

After more than five years of planning, designing, and building, we're just weeks away from opening Lane’s brand-new 4-story tower—a transformative addition that will redefine the patient and provider experience in Zachary and beyond.

This state-of-the-art facility is more than just a structure. It’s a reflection of our commitment to compassionate care, cutting-edge technology, and the community we serve.

What You Can Expect:

  • 48 spacious, private inpatient rooms spread across two floors, each wing designed for calm, quiet, and comfort.
  • Bright, welcoming spaces throughout—large windows, comfortable family seating, and multiple waiting areas near elevators and patient halls.
  • Centralized telemetry and simulation spaces to ensure our staff stay sharp and patients stay safe.
  • A therapy gym supporting inpatient rehab and mobility care, built right into the 4th floor.
  • Expanded ICU capacity after the 2nd Phase has been completed—growing from 8 to 14 beds to meet rising patient needs.
  • Four advanced operating suites and an all-new Sterile Processing Department.
  • Enhanced security with controlled badge access across key areas.
  • Future-ready design with plans for new day surgery bays, PACU, endoscopy, and a modern infusion center.
  • Streamlined outpatient services, anchored by private, enclosed registration and a centralized location for better flow.

Every inch of this tower was designed with you in mind—your comfort, your safety, and your care. And for our medical teams, it’s a new platform to deliver the kind of excellence Lane is known for.

Stay tuned—opening day is almost here.
