The new facilities, which will total 84,000 square feet according to a Nov. 28 report from Healthcare Design Magazine, are slated for completion in 2025. The larger space will improve the service to the community in Northwestern Kansas, where the hospital group currently also provides senior healthcare and family practice services in addition to the main hospital, the Nov. 17 KWCH report said.
The USDA is also providing a $58 million grant to neighboring Bolivar, Mo.-based Citizens Memorial Hospital as part of a $77 million expansion at that location.
