By GlobalDataDuring the ground-breaking ceremony, LKH board of directors chair Alan Alderfer was quoted by the media outlet as saying: “As the area’s only full-service hospital since 1976, we are proud of Lutheran Kosciusko, what it means to our community.
“Because of our advanced heart and vascular, cancer and surgical programmes, patients don’t have to leave our community for service.”
The hospital plans to continue investing in its services and bolster access across the region with primary care, specialist offices and urgent care services.
Alderfer added: “In the last decade, we have added dozens of new providers and invested capital in these capital projects locally.”
