Investing in Readiness & Patient Care: The Newly Renovated Naval Health Clinic Patuxent River Pharmacy

We were proud to cut the ribbon on January 12 for the newly renovated Naval Health Clinic (NHC) Patuxent River Pharmacy! This major project is a direct investment in our core mission. By nearly doubling our footprint, this renovation is designed to create opportunities for streamlined operations and optimize workflow, all aimed at enhancing the health and well-being of the Patuxent River community.

As we work towards greater efficiency, the intent is to return our service members to their duties promptly, ensuring a mission-ready force.

For our valued beneficiaries and families, the renovated facility provides a modern, patient-centered environment.

The vision for the project was driven by Pharmacy Department Head, Dr. Leslie Jago, who designed the new space to resolve long-standing challenges. The vision was executed by the outstanding Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) and supporting teams who guided this project.

The dedication of the NHC Patuxent River Pharmacy, Facilities, and IMD staff was critical in maintaining pharmacy operations with minimal downtime during the nine-month renovation, showcasing an unwavering commitment to our patients throughout the transition.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the Naval Air Station Patuxent River Leadership, the Naval Health Clinic Leadership, the Navy Exchange (NEX) and our collaborative partners for attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony and marking this significant achievement with our staff.
