About the new Health Center and Pharmacy
- The new Health Center and Pharmacy project is a direct result of the five-year strategic plan the Health District adopted in 2019. That plan, now being updated, identified enhanced local health care as a top community priority. The new Health Center will triple the size of the current facility (the former Rinehart Clinic) and have space to accommodate specialty services, including dental and x-ray.
- The new Health Center will have 15 exam and procedure rooms, a major upgrade from the existing facility, allowing space to accommodate specialty services, including x-ray and dental.
- The new Health Center has been designed with energy efficiency and sustainability in mind and will include a solar array, an emergency generator and a variety of energy saving features.
