Campbell County Health to Retire the Pioneer Building

Campbell County Health in Gillette will be retiring the Pioneer Building over the next few months. An assessment completed on the building in 2016 determined a useful life of 5 to 10 years for the building. A recent assessment showed costs to maintain the building at approximately $200,000. Capital improvements needed to continue to use the building into the future estimated at over $2 million over the next several years.

The building currently houses Patient Financial Services (the CCH billing office), education and training classrooms, the CCH School-age Childcare program, and short-term housing for contractors, newly hired employees, students and physicians. According to information from Campbell County Health, plans have been developed for the services that are located in the Pioneer Building. Patient Financial Services will relocate to the fourth floor, north wing of Campbell County Memorial Hospital. Health Information Management (Medical Records) will also be relocated adjacent to financial services. The move is expected to be completed by the end of May 2022.

The education and training classrooms have moved to Campbell County Memorial Hospital. Students will receive directions to the specific classroom for their course upon registration, and interior signage has been updated. The school-age childcare program is being discontinued as of May 31, 2022. All parents who currently participate in the program have been notified and provided with other local, licensed options through DFS and the Boys and Girls Club. Plans are being developed to work with local hotels to house students when needed.
