In 1967, the hospital moved to its present location at 4021 Avenue B, opening with 112 beds. In 1988, the name was changed to Regional West Medical Center. Like health care, the medical center continues to evolve. In addition, Regional West was integrally involved in the development of the new Dorwart Cancer Care Center at Sidney, Nebraska. In addition to these construction projects, the second and third floor nursing units underwent a major remodeling and redecorating effort.
Construction continues on a new entrance on the south side of the building.
Several departments will be relocated to the new entry by the beginning of 2002-including the Gift Shop and Guest Services. We are confident that the remodeling project will provide patients with more efficient access to care. Changes being made today will improve health care for the future.
