ONEIDA, N.Y. — Faxton St. Luke’s Healthcare (FSLH) has signed a lease agreement to place its regional dialysis center in the Oneida Plaza at 131 Main St. in Oneida.
FSLH still needs approval from the New York State Department of Health. It hopes to have construction work on the space completed by next fall, according to a news release from FSLH.
The hospital anticipates the new dialysis unit will include 12 treatment stations and operate six days per week from 5 a.m. to 4 p.m.
