4 Bringing health care news to your home Lindsay Medical Clinic is now open When you live in a small community, it ’s a joy to see familiar faces as you walk in the doors of a particular establishment. There’s the checkout clerk at the grocery store; the hairstylist at the beauty parlor ; and in Lindsay, Nebraska, there are the caregivers at the local medical clinic. Columbus Community Hospital opened Lindsay Medical Clinic in October, offering high-quality patient care to people who live in and near Lindsay. The clinic, located at 110 Pine St., offers a wide range of health care services, including medication management for chronic and acute conditions, physical examinations for students and commercial vehicle drivers, annual influenza shots, and other routine needs for the whole family. The providers offer preventive care and treat common medical conditions relating to bone and joint care, infant to elderly care, mental and behavioral health, and more. The community has welcomed the addition of the clinic, which resulted from a partnership between the hospital and the Lindsay Area Investment Club. “They’re looking for improvements in the overall health care of their community,” said Korie Whitmore, director of clinics at Columbus Community Hospital. “It’s exciting to partner with them.” Staff members say it’s been fun watching the clinic come together, and they look forward to serving the community for years. “I feel the benefits are numerous,” said Chantel Sempek, practice manager for the clinic. “Community members can receive quality care closer to home and in a more timely manner.” The hospital also offers services at Humphrey Medical Clinic in Humphrey, Nebraska. Both facilities are primary care clinics, which means they are a one-stop shop for community members of all ages. Children, parents and grandparents can receive care from the same friendly faces in the same place.
