CDH reopens hospital-based urgent care clinic Cooley Dickinson Urgent Care is reopening at its hospital-based location, which served as a COVID response targeted respiratory illness clinic for the last year. Submitted photo Published: 5/3/2021 4:19:04 PM NORTHAMPTON Cooley Dickinson Health Care has reopened Urgent Care at its hospital location. The Urgent Care practice, which closed in the spring of 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, provides an alternative to Emergency Department visits for illnesses and injuries that are not life-threatening, and in many cases can reduce the cost and wait time for treatment of those conditions. Urgent Care reopens in a new space in the west wing of the 30 Locust St. building, which was set up to serve acute COVID-19 patients and whose mandate has been winding down as COVID case numbers drop in the region and vaccination rates increase.

Transhealth Northampton opens as first 'independent, comprehensive' transgender health center

Transhealth Northampton opens as first ‘independent, comprehensive’ transgender health center Updated May 04, 2021; Facebook Share NORTHAMPTON Dallas Ducar, founding chief executive officer of Transhealth Northampton, which officially opens Tuesday, May 4, says the health care center’s name speaks “loud and proud about who and what we are.” “We are the first independent, comprehensive transgender health care center in the nation,” Ducar said. “We are led by the trans community, which is really unique, and we are for the trans community. We are really built to empower people. We are empowering trans- and gender-diverse adults, children, families.” There are other health care systems regionally and statewide that incorporate care to those who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender, but Ducar said Transhealth Northampton is alone in its mission of “committing 100 percent of our budget to transgender health care.”
