In July 2026, the new Foundation sponsored Wellness Clinic opened.  This project was inspired by the very well received addition of an internal medicine doctor to our campus in 2023.  The on-site physician clinic, operated by Swiggum Internal Medicine, LLC, was able to serve 200 residents and consistently maintained a waitlist of over 50 people. 

Creating a new wellness clinic provided us with an opportunity to offer more on- site healthcare services to residents on a regular basis.  It also allowed Dr. Swiggum to expand her practice and services.

The expansion included a 1,200 square foot space with three additional exam rooms, an office for the Campus Nurse, a comfortable waiting area, and a restroom.  In the new Wellness Clinic, the Campus Nurse can provide medical services such as basic wound care, vital sign checks, dressing changes, injections, and consultations.  It also provides an opportunity for increased on-campus contracted medical services that are available to our residents on a regular basis, including vision and hearing checks, dental hygiene visits, vaccinations, and medical-grade foot care, with the potential for more.  As of the end of 2026, there are nine vendors that use the space regularly, with some reporting increases in volume since the opening of the clinic space.

We look forward to all that the new Wellness Clinic will continue to offer to our residents and community, ensuring that Rockwood continues to be a place where health, comfort, and community can thrive.
