POTSDAM -- The Corning, Inc. Foundation recently gave an unspecified amount to the Canton-Potsdam Hospital Foundation, according to Canton-Potsdam Hospital. It will help pay for construction and equipment costs associated with creation of the multi-provider primary care practice that opened this year at the Cheel Medical Campus.

In the past ten years, CPH says the Corning foundation has donated more than $25,000 to the hospital.

The new primary care space features a modular design that accommodates potential future development, CPH said. Structural features include 23 exam rooms, two centralized team rooms, 10 provider offices, two treatment rooms, in-house lab, work areas for technicians and physician assistants, offices for a site manager, referral coordinator, social worker, and health informatics professional, a community room, and two education centers, CPH said.
