CCNM is undergoing a dramatic transformation to build a truly integrative approach to health care within its current facilities. Over the next year, in what is currently the RSNC Women’s Health Wing, the College will create a private, professional clinic, the CCNM Integrated Health Clinic, where a variety of health-care providers may rent space and see patients. As a result of donor generosity, CCNM can broaden its vision of clinical services to allow patients to see a single health-care provider, in addition to the team-based clinical care offered in the RSNC teaching clinic.
