EMERGENCY
CAREIn 1997, a $2 Million Outpatient and
Emergency Room building program was completed. This added 16,000 square
feet of handicapped accessible space. This latest addition improved the
Emergency Room services and provided access to more efficient and
convenient outpatient care. This addition provided updated radiology,
CT, lab, Physical Therapy, Fitness Center and Outpatient Clinic exam
rooms. Telemedicine diagnostic and conferencing was included to give
physicians quick access to specialists worldwide. Educational classes
are also provided by the telemedicine system. Today the hospital is one
of the most modern, well-equipped primary facilities in Northwest
