We plan to have a Womens Clinic, Mens Clinic, Well Child Clinic in the very near future. I am working in collaboration with Stormont-Vail Medical Center, Topeka, Kansas on these specialty clinics. Stormont-Baker University School of Nursing will be coming to KNHC beginning in January 2008 for internship experiences for their students who are seniors in the nursing program. The permanent physician has been at KNHC for approximately 16 months and a resident of the local community of Horton. He has clinical privileges at the local community hospital also. There is approximately 10 permanent employees at this health center. We are a small out-patient clinic with stability of health providers.
