The new Amherst County Community Health Center in Madison Heights is close to completion, with Johnson Health Center announcing that the final touches are being put in place. The center will offer a range of healthcare services for residents, including primary care for adults and pediatrics, behavioral health services, dental care, a drive-thru pharmacy, and a wellness center complete with fitness equipment and a teaching kitchen. This comprehensive approach to healthcare aims to serve the diverse needs of the community in Amherst County.
The groundbreaking ceremony for the site took place in 2023, with the opening date scheduled for early 2024. The CEO of Johnson Health Center has stated that the new health center will create job opportunities for 13 to 20 new employees. This development is seen as a positive step in improving access to quality healthcare services for residents in the area. With this new addition to the community, residents will have access to a wide range of healthcare services that were previously unavailable or difficult to obtain.
