We are extremely grateful to our partners at Wellpoint for sharing our mission of creating the healthiest community in the nation. On July 24th, WellPoint graciously donated a mobile clinic van to Summit, which will serve as a vital health access point for residents in rural Grays Harbor. This incredible contribution will help us provide essential healthcare services to those who need it most. “When we think about closing the healthcare access and outcomes disparities, we know that solving the transportation issue is one of the biggest steps we can take for patients. Our mobile medical vans help our healthcare providers in rural and underserved communities gain access to medical services that can address and resolve chronic health issues like diabetes and high blood pressure,” said Lisa Bogard, President and CEO of Wellpoint Washington. “The vision of Summit Pacific to create the healthiest communities in the nation is one that inspires our entire Wellpoint team, and we are thrilled to put this key piece in place to help them reach their lofty, but achievable, goal.” Thank you to State senators Kevin Van De Wege (D), Jeff Wilson (R) and State representatives, Mike Chapman (D), Steve Tharinger (D), and Jim Walsh (R), for showcasing bipartisan support for SPMC’s initiatives. Elma Mayor Josh Collette and other community dignitaries also attended, highlighting the community’s united front in advancing local healthcare.

Our partners at Summit Pacific Medical Center recently celebrated a major construction milestone with a beam signing ceremony. Community members, staff, and a local turkey (yes a turkey) signed the beam which will live in memoriam at the hospital. Opening in Summer 2025, the 32,000 SF expansion, aims to double the hospital’s emergency department and inpatient bed capacity. With a growing community population, the expansion will enhance Summit Pacific’s operations to “build the healthiest community in the nation.“ And to support further hospital fundraising efforts, Mahlum staff members Rodrigo Meira, PJ Bauser, and Brett Dunnam joined Summit Pacific this past weekend for their Tour De Wellness bike ride. Special thanks to our design and construction team who are helping Summit Pacific realize their vision!
