- Abstract:
- This issue brief examines the need for and role of well-conceived facilities within the safety-net system and highlights two rural California clinics that used outside-the-box thinking to create buildings that support new models of care: Hill County Health and Wellness Center in Round Mountain and Open Door's Del Norte Community Health Center in Crescent City. Clinic leaders, architects, and community members were interviewed to learn how these facilities were conceived and built and how they serve their communities' needs for health, education, jobs, and more.
