“It’s critical we ensure Montana’s hospitals continue to provide the best quality healthcare to folks across the state,” said Rehberg, a member of the House Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education Appropriations Subcommittee.  “And focusing on the needs of our rural hospitals is an important part of that effort.  These funds will help provide Eureka with the resources necessary to continue to provide quality care.”

The funding will be to expand the hospital’s existing facilities.  A larger facility will allow expanded services in obstetrics, urology, cardiology, orthopedics, physical therapy, ultrasound imaging, full time laboratory and other imaging services such as mobile CAT scan. Additionally, the expansion will allow for an increase in the clinic hours.

“We’re just thrilled with Congressman Rehberg’s help in securing these funds,” said Carol Blake, Executive Director of the North Valley Hospital Foundation.  “The additional dollars will be a big factor in our ability to expand the clinic and increase the quality of healthcare we can provide.”
