MFP Now Open

NOW OPEN! Projects completed under the Master Facilities Plan

This year was set to be an exciting time for our communities, as we planned the first ribbon-cuttings and unveilings of our renovation and construction projects. However, COVID-19 required us to adapt. For example, in March we were forced to cancel the community open house we had planned to celebrate the completion of the Founders’ Café & Grill, which is the name of the new cafeteria at Penn Highlands DuBois-West. However, since the COVID-19 pandemic reached our country, our most important priority has been to keep our patients, our staff, and you—our community— safe.

Thank you to our patients and your loved ones for understanding that the restrictions we put in place have been for your protection, per guidelines from the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Please continue to do your part to stay safe. See our back page for information on how getting a flu shot in 2020 could also help you and your family stay safe from COVID-19.

PH Brookville Medical Office Building

In July, the new Medical Office Building opened on the Penn Highlands Brookville hospital campus to offer services such as family medicine, QCare, pulmonology, general surgery, oncology and urology. "We are already hearing from patients who are excited that the new Medical Office Building makes their access to our esteemed providers more convenient than ever," said PH Brookville president Julie Peer. "Everything is right here in one spot for them."

In March, the West Wing Annex at Penn Highlands DuBois-West opened with new space to house patients, along with updated break and gathering spaces for employees, and a new cafeteria that is equipped with a viewing monitor so the loved ones of patients who are undergoing medical procedures can follow the patient’s progress.

When you visit Penn Highlands facilities, we appreciate your patience and understanding as we work hard to grow our services to bring you the highest quality life-saving care that’s close to home.
