This 17,000 sf center was built to provide local radiation and chemotherapy treatment to its rural community. The linear accelerator vault is shielded with 670 cubic yards of concrete and the CT simulator room is lead lined. In addition there are 16 chemotherapy kiosks in the wood-framed, two-story building. The four-acre site has 160 parking spaces and required extensive wetlands mitigation before the final landscaping.

Features of the project include: four private infusion suites with four IV infusion chairs in each suite, a separate room for infusion patients requiring privacy or isolation, a dedicated injection area, integrative care room with massage and acupuncture services, central nutrition area to provide patients with nourishment before, during and after treatment, advanced radiation therapy technologies, varian linear accelerator with on-board imaging, intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT), respiratory gated radiation therapy and GE CT simulator.
