According to a Feb. 18 news release, the Baxter Health Foundation has already raised $1.5 million toward its goal. The J.E & L.E. Mabee Foundation will add $500,000, once the goal is met, bringing the total contribution to the new lab to $2.5 million.
The project in total will cost $4.5 million. The hospital currently has two catheterization labs and one hybrid operating room. The new lab will create expanded access to cardiac services to meet increased demand in the region.
