The project consists of the construction of a new 37,500 sq. ft. health center facility that will consolidate two existing stand-alone sites (a primary care site, and a co-located behavioral health and dental health site) in rural Chautauqua County in Western New York.
The consolidation of two of TCC’s three Dunkirk sites will allow greater communication among providers, streamline service delivery, improve access to care using a more team-based approach to address a wider range of patients’ needs during a single visit, and provide an on-site pharmacy to improve medication adherence.
“By consolidating locations, TCC will benefit from having streamlined operations and service delivery, along with additional providers and capacity to better serve the needs of our community,” noted Michael Pease, CEO of TCC. PCDC is providing $7 million of NMTC allocation and a $1 million loan from the NYS Fund towards The project.
All employees hired for the project will receive benefits and a solid wage.
