KentuckyOne Health Opens Primary Care Clinic at St. Catharine College
Open house planned for October 28

St. Catharine, Ky. (October 21, 2015)—KentuckyOne Health has opened a primary care clinic at St. Catharine College. The new location is open Wednesdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and makes care convenient and accessible to St. Catharine students. The clinic is located at 2670 Bardstown Road in Springfield.

The community is invited to tour the new clinic at an open house event on Wednesday, October 28, 2015 at 10 a.m.

Connie Pate, APRN, is providing care at the clinic, which offers a variety of services including annual physical exams, preventative health consultations and the treatment of acute illnesses. Pate also sees patients at the KentuckyOne Health Primary Care Associates office on Main Street in Willisburg. She specializes in family medicine.

In 2014, KentuckyOne Health became the official health care provider of St. Catharine College Athletics. Mark Duber, DO, orthopedic surgeon and head of sports medicine orthopedics at Flaget Memorial Hospital, part of KentuckyOne Health, serves as medical director for the college’s athletic programs. KentuckyOne Health also provides clinical training for students in the college’s athletic training program.

The opening of the new primary care clinic was part of the agreement between KentuckyOne Health and the college.

“Access to quality medical care is essential to living well and developing a healthy lifestyle,” said Sue Down, president, Flaget Memorial Hospital. “Providing primary care services on campus will help St. Catharine students access care when they need it so that they can stay well and focused on their studies.”

“This is an exciting venture for St. Catharine College. We value our partnership with KentuckyOne and are pleased to offer primary care services to our students and staff. This is just another step toward providing the best services possible for our campus community and another opportunity to connect with the surrounding communities,” said Cindy Gnadinger, EdD, president, St. Catharine College.

St. Catharine College, founded in 1931, is a small liberal arts college that enrolls approximately 850 students from 52 counties in Kentucky, 15 states and five countries.
