COVID-19 Information, Tips and Our Plans

Additional information about COVID-19 (aka Coronavirus), and steps our health center has executed or recommends our patients perform, to help control the spread of the disease:
COVID-19 spreads similar to the flu. Touching shared surfaces, or being in close proximity of people who exhibit symptoms, could be red flags, but please consider the following:
  • Social Distancing – retain space between you others while in public spaces.  Use proper technique when coughing, sneezing and other actions that may cause vapors to leave your body.  Use a tissue or elbow to help control the spread
  • Handwashing – use recommended handwashing techniques.  Scrub for 20 seconds with soap and water.  This link will take you to additional information.

Health & Wellness Responds to COVID-19

COVID19 has brought uncertainty and disruption to our communities and all around the world, but rest assured that our mission to provide quality care for all area patients has not changed, and we are doing everything possible to ensure that we can continue to provide that care without putting the safety and well-being of our patients, employees, their families, and our communities at risk.
Our leadership team is in constant contact to discuss and update ongoing emergency preparedness plans.  At present, the precautions we are taking at all Health & Wellness Centers include:
  • Employees that have the ability to work from home are encouraged to do so if they feel at risk being in the office. 
  • Our locations are receiving extensive sanitation throughout the day.
  • Essential staff and anyone entering our facilities, including patients, deliveries, etc., are being screened for high temperatures prior to entering our facilities, which have each been limited to 1 point of entry.
  • We are practicing our social distancing!
  • Patients that do need to be seen and prefer not to come to the clinics can be seen via their smart phone or tablet! 
  • Please call 800-640-9741 to make an appointment and visit https://www.thwcinc.com/ for more information on our virtual visit options.
  • Our pharmacy, Hoover Drug in Stigler, is OPEN! You may use our convenient drive-thru window to pick up your medications.

New Facility and Services Coming Soon to Poteau
The Health & Wellness Center has purchased 35 Acres and will be relocating the current Poteau Health and Wellness Center located at 204 Wall Street to its new location at 1120 Tarby Road near the Poteau Wal-Mart Supercenter.  We have been working closely with architect, Michael Riley, the Planning Commission, and the City of Poteau on this project. The City of Poteau continues to be supportive and we appreciate their input on all tasks we have asked of them. David Knowlton, Project Manager for the Health & Wellness Center, will be overseeing the Poteau project and we are excited to use various local contractors and businesses throughout each phase of the building process to make this multi-million dollar project happen.  The project will include a new 24,000 square foot Medical & Behavioral Health Facility which will also include an 7500 square foot Residential Substance Use Disorder Treatment Facility for patients.  The Residential Treatment portion will include 10 duplexes with housing for 4 patients per duplex, and 3 Student Housing units for Medical Residents and Interns. We also have future plans to build a conference center and add 10 additional duplexes in the second phase of the build.  We are proud to be part of the Poteau community and are committed to this expansion and the patients it will serve.

     To enroll, please reach out to one of our staff members.  The member will require a valid email address to which the invitation can be sent.  This link will take patients to the current secure portal
