It provides comprehensive medical care from diagnosis to treatment for a full range of illnesses, injuries and disorders. The now 247-bed acute care facility was established in 1962 as a community hospital. Maintaining a "small town" atmosphere, it has expanded or upgraded its services to a level comparable or superior to services found at larger metro facilities. With nearly 300 primary care and specialty physicians on the medical staff, specialized services are provided through various hospital divisions. The emergency department will be separated into "pods" situated so the more critically ill patients will be treated in the back of the department, while the less sick or minor injuries will be treated in a separate area. The facility will include ten ìfast trackî rooms where patients who require less acute emergency intervention can be treated without having to wait on the treatment of more acutely ill patients. There will also be five observation rooms, which will provide a more comfortable environment for patients who require more time for testing or treatment. The home health staff provides patients the opportunity to recover and rehabilitate at home. The home health staff averages over 5,000 patient visits each month to homes within a 50-mile radius.
