Des Moines, Iowa-based MercyOne has shared plans to close its MercyOne Ottumwa (Iowa) Family and Internal Medicine location.
The last day the clinic will see patients is Feb. 27, a spokesperson for the health system said in a statement shared with Becker’s.
MercyOne Ottumwa comprises seven family medicine providers, according to its website.
The health system’s human resources team is working with impacted employees on next steps, including applying for open positions, the statement said.
“MercyOne regularly evaluates operations to adapt to changing demographics and needs,” the statement said. “This evaluation process is driven by our need to strengthen our ministry by expanding access where possible and consolidating or relocating services where barriers exist, ensuring sustainability and growth in a swiftly changing healthcare environment.”
