Portneuf Medical Center
Portneuf Medical Center is a not-for-profit, acute and long-term care facility owned by the citizens of Bannock County. With approximately 1,300 employees, it is the second largest employer in Bannock County. The organization's mission, vision and value statements set the bar for the delivery of compassionate, quality healthcare for every patient, regardless of their ability to pay.
Portneuf Medical Center is a governmental, 248-bed (plus 14 NICU bassinets and 28 well baby nursery bassinets) acute care facility and 92-bed Long Term/Transitional care facility. Presently, acute care services are offered at two hospital locations, the West Campus at 651 Memorial Drive and the East Campus at 777 Hospital Way. Portneuf Medical Center offers open-heart surgery to Southeast Idaho. Offsite hospital facilities include an urgent care center, the Family Practice Residency Clinic, a home health care center and hyperbaric oxygen therapy center. Whether you need surgery, are planning for the birth of a child, scheduling a mammogram or just needing stitches, Portneuf Medical Center offers a comprehensive array of services. Specialty services include MRI and CT scans, a newborn intensive care unit, cancer treatment, a behavioral health unit and a sleep disorder center.
For 20 years the Life Flight helicopter has been providing fast, lifesaving services to the people of Southeast Idaho. In the spring of 2003 Portneuf Medical Center purchased a new Augusta A109E helicopter that will allow for faster trips and even better access to patients during flight. Within the next 15 years, the medical center plans to consolidate acute care services to one location. The consolidation will be made possible by expansion and construction at the East Campus. A new state-of-the-art medical center will create jobs, attract more specialized medical services and physicians to the area and distinguish Portneuf Medical Center as a tertiary center for the region.
