From Leader Publications: Work is well underway to remodel the building for Compass Health Network’s new integrated medical building at 1275 N. Truman Blvd. in Festus that used to house a grocery store. That work is expected to wrap up by March, said Sue Curfman, Compass’ senior vice president of regional corporate services in Jefferson County.
The former 60,000-square-foot grocery store, which last operated as a Schnucks and before that as a Shop ’n Save, is being converted into Compass’ Truman Building, which will provide comprehensive integrated care.
Compass Health Network is a nonprofit health care organization that provides a full continuum of behavioral health services, as well as primary and dental health services throughout Missouri.
Curfman said the building will provide services in primary care, pediatrics, dental, pediatric dental, oral surgery, optometry, psychiatry, counseling and substance abuse treatment, as well as open access for those experiencing crisis. It also will include a pharmacy and a well-being center.
Demolition and remodeling began in June, and the Truman Building is scheduled to open in late March or early April, she said.
Upon entering the building, there will be a 9,000-square-foot lobby with skylights above.
