Capital Medical Center fits perfectly into MultiCare's vision, explained Will Callicoat, Thurston County Market Leader for MultiCare. "Our vision is MultiCare will be the Pacific Northwest's highest value system of health. Capital Medical Center allows MultiCare to expand its population-based care, especially with Thurston County being a gateway to surrounding rural counties, including Mason, Grays and Lewis. We see the need for additional care in this community, whether that is primary, specialty or behavioral health care." Callicoat has lived in Thurston County for 23 years. His daughter was born at Capital Medical Center, and he started his career at Capital Medical Center. "We believe that decisions are better thurstonchamber.com
made locally," he said. "Right now, 80 percent of all care in this community is handled by Providence. I'd love to see that changed. It would be a failure if we didn't create more balance in this community." Callicoat gave an example, explaining that most ambulances from neighboring rural counties bypass Capital Medical Center and go to Providence. If Capital was the hospital of choice in those situations, it would substantially cut down trip time and expense. Callicoat knows that MultiCare can't improve the health and expand access to care and services in the South Sound region alone. "The list of MultiCare partners is long – including Physicians of Southwest Washington, SeaMar Health Clinic and ABC Pediatrics. There is a saying, 'If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.' Community partnerships are crucial for healing and a healthy future."
