The Jamestown S'Klallam
Tribe of Washington is preparing to open a new health clinic in June.
The 34,000 square-foot Jamestown Medical Clinic replaces a much smaller facility. The $7 million clinic will provide health care to tribal members and the general public.
Visitors to the clinic will be greeted by two totem poles. "The Healing Arts" is 36 feet tall and feature images of a medicine man and his spirit helpers. "Welcome" is 14 foot tall and features a man in a cedar hat holding out his hands.
