As previously reported, ground was broken on the new facility in November 2021. The project was bolstered by some $1.9 million in federal grants.
According to a tribal news release, the new facility includes a pharmacy, 20 medical exam rooms, eight dental exam rooms and eight behavioral health exam rooms.
“Our new Cedar City location will improve care to the community by offering affordable medical, dental and behavioral health services in one location,” tribal officials said in the release. “With the larger facility, we look forward to serving more community members.”

“The tribe eagerly anticipates the positive impact this facility will have on their tribal community’s well-being, and the health of the Cedar City community,” the news release said. “With ample space for future services, FourPoints Health stands as a beacon of healthcare accessibility and support for the Paiute Tribe and beyond.”
