Unity Care NW Hosts Ribbon-Cutting Celebration for North Whatcom Health Center on June 27
May 29, 2019
Unity Care NW will celebrate the long-awaited opening of the new North Whatcom Health Center in Ferndale on Thursday, June 27. The event is free and open to the public. It will be held from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at 6060 Portal Way.
The ribbon-cutting celebration will include remarks by local dignitaries, music, and the opportunity to tour the new facility. KAFE 104.1 will be on site with Scotty VanDryver that afternoon providing music and interviews. Attendees will have the chance to win an overnight stay at Semiahmoo Resort or The Inn at Lynden.
The North Whatcom Health Center will expand access to primary medical, dental, behavioral health, and pharmacy services in north Whatcom County. The new 23,000 sq. ft. health center will serve 9,500 patients. It will include 12 dental operatories, expanding access to adult dental care in our community. The facility will also have the most comprehensive behavioral health services in Whatcom County, outside of Bellingham. It will bring on-site pharmacy services to the Ferndale location, and it will employ 60 full-time staff and will contribute to the revitalization of Ferndale’s Portal Way corridor. The North Whatcom Health Center will open to patients on July 1, 2019.
