Northwest Community Healthcare breaks ground for Outpatient Care Center
More than 60 guests, including the mayor of Kildeer, Northwest Community Healthcare leadership, builder Leopardo Companies, real estate investor Medicus Capital and development firm Ankura Healthcare Real Estate, attended a groundbreaking ceremony held recently to mark the start of construction on a 50,000-square-foot, two-story Outpatient Care Center.
The new facility will be at the corner of Rand and Cuba roads in Kildeer.
Answering the call to respond to the growing needs of the community, Northwest Community Healthcare President and CEO Steve Scogna shared Northwest Community Healthcare's vision to expand the quality care Northwest Community Healthcare offers by replacing a nearby existing Northwest Community Healthcare Immediate Care Center at 1201 S. Rand Road, in Lake Zurich, with a state-of-the-art medical building, complete with multiple health care services.
"This project is yet another example of our commitment to provide the best in health care to the many communities we serve," Scogna says. "It will meet the increasing demand and growing need for both health care services and providers in the area."
The Outpatient Care Center, slated for completion in late 2019, will include:
• Primary care and specialty physician clinics
• An immediate care center
• A full-service imaging center, including MRI, CT, X-ray, ultrasound, cardiac diagnostics and bone densitometry
• A breast imaging center
• A lab draw site
• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Intensive cardiac rehab
Northwest Community Healthcare is partnering with construction firm Leopardo Companies, based in Hoffman Estates, Medicus Capital, architectural firm Jensen and Halstead and real estate development firm Ankura.
This project comes on the heels of a new Outpatient Care Center on the Harper College campus in Palatine, which opened five months ago and offers primary and immediate care seven days a week.
