The Mountain States Health Alliance (MSHA) is set to invest around $11m to improve facilities at the Norton Community Hospital in Virginia, the US.

The investment will be used to build a new medical complex, which offers outpatient services such as rehabilitation, occupational medicine, pharmacy, surgery and orthopaedic services.

MSHA will also construct a new wellness centre, and will expand emergency room at the hospital.

MSHA president and CEO Alan Levine said: "These are difficult times for hospitals – especially rural hospitals – but we recognise that providing high-quality rural health care is critical for our entire region. It’s a worthwhile investment and one we make enthusiastically."

"Our goal is to give our patients the best experience possible b delivering expert emergency care quickly and smoothly."

The 39,000ft² NCH Medical Complex will offer outpatient services, including primary care through community physicians, general surgery, and OccuMed clinic, in addition to orthopaedic services such as sports medicine, total joint replacement, arthroscopic and trauma.

In addition to this, six additional exam rooms will be constructed for the emergency department, and a centralised provider station will be expanded to improve communication, department efficiency and patient flow.
