The renovations have increased comfort and patient capacity, while also modernizing the space so that busy clinicians and staff are able to achieve the best outcomes for their patients, according to a news release from HealthReach Community Health Centers, based in Waterville.

Among many other upgrades, these renovations included expansions to the waiting room, exam rooms, administrative areas and medical records areas. In addition, an updated nurses’ station, a new lab, and additional exam rooms will benefit both staff and patients, according to the release.

New offices have been built for both the site’s connector and care manager, improving patient comfort in its meeting spaces where they provide patient assistance. Additionally, new offices were added for both the site’s behavioral health counselor and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. These changes have already improved operations, and are allowing staff to serve more community members than ever before with an emphasis on personalized, whole-patient care.

Since its foundation in 1977, Madison Area Health Center had previously expanded its spatial capacity twice. The first expansion occurred in 1980, and the second expansion was in 1989. The practice serves the people of Madison, Anson and nearby towns.
