Roughly two years ago, Western Nebraska Community College began work on the renovation and expansion of the John N. Harms Center on the Scottsbluff Campus to revamp and provide new spaces for WNCC Health Sciences programs.
Later this month, the public is invited to come celebrate the completion of the project.
The project consisted of nearly 35,000 square feet of renovated space split between the lower level and main floor, and will provide expansion and improvements for programs including nursing, emergency medical services, health information technology, medical laboratory technology, and surgical technology.
During a ceremony last January celebrating the halfway point of the project, College President Greg Dart said over the years, there’s been a lot of work done to ensure that WNCC has been meeting the needs of the local community.
He said there were a few things that kept hearing again and again, and of course it was the growing need for health care professionals.
The ribbon cutting ceremony and open house is scheduled for Monday, January 26th at 4 p.m. at the Harms Center.
