News NCMC Looking for Feedback
It’s hard to miss the construction going on at the North Canyon Medical Center at the south end of Gooding. The new 33,000 square foot Medical Plaza is a $10 million dollar addition funded by the United States Department of Agriculture and Idaho Health Facilities Authority. The goal of the Medical Plaza is to improve the coordination of care for patients by bringing health care services together in one convenient location. The facility will include an on site Physician Office; on site Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapy; a permanent MRI machine for daily and emergent MRI services; a dedicated space for their
growing Wound Center; and an expansion of the current Specialty Clinic. As a continuing effort to improve existing services, the North Canyon Medical Center is collecting feedback on how the organization is perceived by community members. You are encouraged to give your feedback by participating in the survey at www.surveymonkey.
