A nearly one-year project has been completed at Tomah Health and officials will officially open its new Professional Development Center with a Ribbon Cutting ceremony on Friday, May 15 beginning at 10 a.m. at 501 Gopher Dr., Tomah.
The highlight of the approximately 10,000 sq. ft. facility is a conference room named in recognition of John and Velda Felton of Warrens whose trust allocated more than $1,000,000 to the project. “Our expanded conference center space is truly a testament to John and Velda Felton who so graciously supported this project through their trust,” said Tomah Health CEO Derek Daly.
He said the new addition also includes a high-tech simulation lab named in recognition of the Felton family. “Training and further education of our staff is paramount and with the Felton’s support we were able to add a high-tech simulation lab to our new facility which will enhance care we provide to our community,” added Daly. He said non-clinical offices for departments involved in Tomah Health’s investment in employee development, education, and health are also part of the new addition.
Daly said the public is invited to tour the new addition on Friday, May 15 from 4 p.m. – 6 p.m. and on Saturday, May 16 from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m. “We really want members of the community to be able to see what this project is all about and hope they can attend our open house events.”
