BOURNE – Officials with the Community Health Center of Cape Cod have cut the ribbon on their newly renovated facility in Bourne.
The non-profit expanded their Waterhouse Road office from roughly 2,200 square feet to nearly 10,000 in order to better accommodate increased demand for residential access to primary care, behavioral health, dental, and pharmacy services.
Dozens gathered at an official event marking the facility’s re-opening last week including members of the Community Health Center of Cape Cod Board of Directors, staff, donors, community partners, and clients.
The expanded space in the Bourne office will include dental services, including preventative exams and restorative care; a public pharmacy providing access to affordable medication; improved office space for increased patient privacy and comfort; expanded Primary Care, Behavioral Health and Addictions Treatment services and dedicated space for prevention and wellness education to help patients understand and manage their health.
The event included a panel discussion on substance abuse featuring State Representative Randy Hunt, CEO of Duffy Health Center Heidi Romans Nelson, Bourne Deputy Fire Chief Joseph J. Carrara, Senior Project Manager at Barnstable County Department of Human Services Vaira Harik, and Medication-Assisted Treatment Nurse Coordinator of Community Health Center of Cape Cod Jennifer Monaghan.
