Norton County Hospital works to keep care close to home for its patients, and one of those ways is by bringing in a variety of medical specialists who make routine visits to examine patients at our hospital. The current list of specialists is located below. Each specialist has his or her own method of making an appointment (some specialists' offices make the appointments, while others prefer that our hospital handles the appointments). The list also details when each specialist routinely comes to Norton County Hospital.
In addition to the specialties listed below, Norton County Hospital has also added new outpatient services as of Spring 2019. With the addition of Jay Alexander, BSN, RN, to the Norton County Hospital team, patients can now have PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters) lines placed on site, in addition to a variety of other services. This information is shared to 1) allow you to understand these new services and 2) provide resources that may help area patients not have to travel long distances to receive the care they need. Services include, for example:
Jay is a 1994 graduate of Norton Community High School and recently moved back to the Norton community. He has 21 years of nursing experience, and he specializes in IV therapy. For the past 13 years, Jay worked in Salina and Hays.
