VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System has selected a site on the campus of the Beaver Valley Mall for its new Beaver County outpatient clinic.
The facility is to be located at 301 Beaver Valley Mall Blvd., Monaca, PA 15061. The site is a standalone vacant building that previously housed a Sears automotive store. It is located approximately 3.5 miles away, or a nine-minute drive, from the existing clinic in Rochester.
The General Services Administration on Feb. 21 awarded a $7.1 million, 20-year build-to-suit lease to Highlands Development LLC., of Kansas City, Kansas, to secure the site.
Expected to open in two years, the new clinic will have 22,153 net usable square feet. It will provide veterans with the same services currently available to them, with additional space for expanding specialty care such as audiology, chiropractic, acupuncture, physical therapy, and an infusion room for certain hematology/oncology chemotherapy treatments.
To allow veterans to receive specialty care closer to home, the new clinic will have dedicated clinical space on a rotating basis for VA Pittsburgh specialists in orthopedics, ENT, cardiology, gastroenterology, etc. In addition, a swing-space office will be available for veterans to meet with representatives from the Veterans Benefits Administration, American Legion, VFW, and other veterans service organizations.
