ozh-street

WEST PLAINS, MO – In cooperation with the City of West Plains, Ozarks Healthcare is strengthening patient safety by rerouting a portion of the street in front of its Emergency Department and Women’s Center starting Monday, June 12. While access to all parking lots will remain the same, through traffic will be routed away from patrons seeking care.

“This change will provide a safer environment for patients, visitors, and staff who are seeking emergency care through our Women’s Center and Emergency Department,” Jo Wagner, Ozarks Healthcare Compliance Officer, said. “The health and safety of our patients are always our number one priority. With the increase in patients accessing these services, cross traffic has become a barrier. We are thankful that the community is welcoming this change.”

Construction to the street will take approximately three weeks. Once the construction concludes, Ozarks Healthcare will place large wayfinding signs around its campus to help patients find parking and entrance locations.

“Ozarks Healthcare and the City of West Plains continue to partner to provide necessary resources to the community,” Sam Anselm, City of West Plains Administrator, said. “While this is yet another change, this decision was vetted through city officials, community members, and roadway experts.”
