Today, we were joined by Deaconess and community leaders for the groundbreaking of the region’s first-ever combined ER and Urgent Care facility, bringing innovative, patient-centered care to our community. This new model eliminates the guesswork for patients by providing the right level of care in one location. The new facility will be adjacent to the Deaconess Lynch Road Clinic, which will remain open. Stay tuned for updates as we bring this vision to life. Learn more at: https://ow.ly/shjj50VxtP3
