Heritage Health expanding operations
Offering medical, dental and behavioral health services to nearly 26,000 patients across North Idaho, Heritage Health is consolidating and expanding its operations into a large facility at 3700 W. Seltice Way in Coeur d'Alene.
Most of the nonprofit's eight Coeur d'Alene locations are being housed in the new Center of Healthy Living, said Heritage Health CEO Mike Baker.
"This consolidation allows us to offer a broader range of services under one roof, enhancing our commitment to providing comprehensive patient-centered care," he said.
The new center's various health divisions include therapy, recovery services and NBS. Behavioral Health Services is moving into the remodeled building through mid-January. Medical services, including pediatrics, dental and pharmacy will move in 2026.
Heritage Health was founded in 1985 by Lidwin Dirne and has changed names several times and became a federally qualified community health center in 2004. It has 12 clinic locations in Coeur d'Alene, Post Falls, Rathdrum, Kellogg and St. Maries. About half of the 360 employees will be in the new building. An open house will be in March.
Hours are 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. Phone 208-620-5250. Check www.myheritagehealth.org.
