OSWEGO — ConnextCare is targeting the early part of 2025 for operations to begin in its new office in Oswego.
The health-care organization held an Aug. 7 groundbreaking ceremony for the new office at 120 E. First St. in Oswego where construction on the building is ongoing.
The total project cost is
$11.8 million, Karli Byrd, corporate relations manager at ConnextCare, tells CNYBJ in an email.
King + King Architects of Syracuse and Rochester–based LeChase Construction Services, LLC, which has an office in Syracuse, are both involved in the project, ConnextCare said.
ConnextCare’s current Oswego office is located at 10 George Str. on Oswego’s West side. The move to the downtown location will “make the office much more accessible to patients who use public transportation and will be within walking distance to many public housing buildings in the city,” the health-care provider says.
The office at 10 George St. currently offers primary care, mental-health services, and substance-use disorder services. The facility only has 12 exam rooms, which ConnextCare says it is “quickly outgrowing.”
The relocation of the office to downtown Oswego will double the number of exam rooms and allow ConnextCare to offer dental services. Its dental services are currently only offered in its Pulaski and Fulton offices and school-based health centers throughout the county.
The new building’s ground floor will include 18 primary-care exam rooms, as well as provider office spaces. The second floor will contain seven dental-exam rooms along with various workspaces and break rooms for staff.
ConnextCare has health centers in Central Square, Fulton, Mexico, Oswego, Parish, Phoenix, and Pulaski. It also operates nine school-based health centers located in the APW, Mexico, Pulaski, Fulton, Oswego and Sandy Creek school districts.
ConnextCare is the former Northern Oswego County Health Services Inc. (NOCHSI) following a 2018 rebrand.
