23 Oct Yellowhawk Expansion Opening
Yellowhawk Tribal Health Center welcomed the community in house on October 4, 2024, to tour the new expansion. The much-anticipated expansion project ends as we make the final touches aimed at improving health services for our community members. This expansion includes the addition of a dedicated Elder entrance, an updated laboratory, storage area, and an enhanced medical wing, all designed to meet the growing needs of our community and clinic. Overall, the expansion added 9,200 square feet.
The expansion features an accessible entrance specifically for Elders, ensuring they have a safe and convenient way to access services. We recognize the importance of catering to the needs of our elder community, and this entrance will provide a warm and welcoming space tailored to their needs.
In addition to the Elder entrance, the laboratory/radiology area underwent comprehensive upgrades in 2024. This will improve efficiency and enhance the accuracy and range of diagnostic services available. Our commitment to providing high-quality healthcare means that patients receive quick test results and improved care based on the latest technology. Four instruments were updated in the last year which allow for high-capacity testing. The laboratory doubled in size and now features a private restroom area, enclosed draw rooms that are easily accessible for wheelchair users and is close in proximity to the medical department. The mammography room will soon be completed to offer those services in-house, expected in 2025.
