(KLZA)-- During a public presentation of the Community Medical Center Annual Report last week, Hospital CEO Ryan Larsen updated those in attendance on the renovation and expansion going on at the hospital.
Ground was broken on a $10-million project in May of 2016. Larsen said getting the new Family Medicine Clinic was the top priority so new doctors would have a place to practice. The new clinic is now open.
The annual report was presented in the new Family Medicine Clinic waiting room.
In June the first phase of the expanded surgery area will open. After that, the new open MRI will come on line followed by Phase II of the expanded surgery area.
The specialty clinic renovations are on schedule to be completed in January, 2018.
A feather in the cap for Community Medical Center was being named one of the Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals in the United States by the National Rural Health Association, iVantage Health Analytics and The Chartis Center for Rural Health.
Larsen said it feels good to have someone notice. The rating group is totally independent of CMC. Larsen said he was very proud of the recognition for his staff.
Larsen noted that while construction can be disrupting, the hospital is very excited to grow and meet the health needs of the area.
