COMMUNITY HEALTH CONNECTIONS, INC.
FIP Facility Investment Program.
Community Health Connections, Inc. is an FQHC with 4 sites in the North Central region of Massachusetts. Our largest health center site and corporate headquarters in Fitchburg is located on the Burbank campus of Health Alliance, the region?s largest hospital system. CHC, Inc. is proposing to use Facility Investment Program funds to construct a 26,300 square-foot addition and to renovate 8,000 square feet of the 56-year-old facility. The project goal is to expand operating capacity to meet the needs of both the newly unemployed and the newly insured under Massachusetts Health Care Reform. The objective is to make this aging and inefficient facility a state-of-the-art health center with enough capacity to meet significant growth needs for the foreseeable future and to expand fulfillment of CHC's mission to provide health professions education through educating family medicine residents, dental hygienists and general practice dental residents.
Need: Historically, the North Central region has experienced a severe scarcity of accessible and comprehensive primary care. CHC, Inc was established in 2002 to meet that need and has grown exponentially every year since. Starting in Fitchburg, it added the Gardner site in 2004; ACTION Health Care for the Homeless in 4 community sites and mobile health unit in 2007 and Leominster in 2008. CHC has secured 2 new access points, 2 expanded medical capacity and 2 service expansion grants to meet this operational growth while our facility capacity has not kept pace.
