Council Bluffs, Iowa-based All Care Health Center will soon begin construction on a $5.7 million dental facility aimed at reducing wait times for patients, the Omaha World-Herald reported Nov. 6.
The dental center’s groundbreaking is scheduled for Nov. 16. Once completed, the 10,000-square-foot facility will include 21 dental treatment spaces.
The goal of the facility is to address a backlog of more than 1,900 patients — including 400 children — who are faced with wait times exceeding 10 months. The center is expected to serve up to 8,000 patients each year.
All Care Health Center also launched a $1.3 million capital campaign to help pay for equipment, technology and furnishings for the dental facility.
