Health & Wellness

Expert medical care is one reason why the North Idaho area is a premier relocation destination. In Coeur d'Alene, Kootenai Medical Center serves over 13,000 inpatients and 169,000 emergency and outpatients annually. KMC provides a full range of services including cancer care at the North Idaho Cancer Center and the North Idaho Heart Center is entering their fourth year of operation. In 2006, Kootenai Medical Center earned the prestigious Magnet status, the gold standard of nursing excellence. This honor is held by fewer than 200 hospitals across the nation. KMC Health Park brings residents of Post Falls together with general practitioners conveniently located off of Mullan Ave.

The 22-bed Northwest Specialty Hospital in Post Falls offers orthopedic, ENT, general and plastic surgeons, GYN, gastric, neurology and pain management specialists. An attached medical center features specialists in physical therapy and an expanded North Idaho Immediate Care Center for general medical treatment and minor emergency care.

Bonner General Hospital in Sandpoint serves most of Bonner and Boundary counties along with Boundary Community Hospital in Bonners Ferry. Sandpoint also has an urgent care center downtown. The Silver Valley is well provided for by the Shoshone Medical Center in Kellogg. The expanded Benewah Community Hospital is in St. Maries.

The Coeur d'Alene Tribal Wellness Center, a 43,000 square-foot facility in Worley, serves members from five counties. The Benewah Medical and Wellness Center (BMC/WC) is located in Benewah County in the Panhandle of Idaho on the Coeur d' Alene Indian Reservation. This county has the highest number of minorities of any county in the State of Idaho. It offers fitness, community health and aquatics and rehabilitation programs to Tribal members and non-Indians through membership plans.

As the influx of new residents to North Idaho includes many from metropolitan areas,
more specialists, day spas and medi-spas, offering an upscale array of services from Botox to laser vein removal are opening their doors. Reflection Med Spa in Coeur d'Alene offers aesthetic enhancement in a spa-like setting. ZiSpa, The Spa at The Coeur d'Alene Resort and Highlands Day Spa are as luxurious and encompassing as spas found in larger cities.

In years past, residents of North Idaho routinely sought medical care and treatment across the state line in Washington, but now a full selection of quality services are available locally.
