What's Happening in Vancouver, WA…

Vancouver Clinic is expanding, and recently announced one of its new locations, which is in Ridgefield, is almost ready to open its doors.

Hospitals and clinics are closing in many rural areas throughout the country, so residents of the Vancouver suburb of Ridgefield are thrilled that they are gaining a clinic, not losing one. In fact, the clinic has already expanded into Battle Ground, and will soon add an additional location in East Vancouver, near the city of Camas.

Taylor Blanchard, who is a project manager for primary care at the clinic, said the facility wanted to provide healthcare to people in the local area. Blanchard noted that Ridgefield is growing rapidly and having a clinic in the community is important to both the residents and the clinic physicians and staff.

The clinic has a lab for testing and an X-ray facility. There will be a teamwork area, where staff members work in the center while patient rooms are along the sides, but connected to the central area. The layout gives the patients privacy and promotes efficient work habits at the same time. In addition, local artists are adding color to the facility by providing artworks for the lobby.

The Ridgefield branch of the clinic will open August 5. Brochure printing can be used to create illustrated pamphlets that list all the services and personnel at facilities like this.
