Health services
MVHS offers many services besides acute hospital care.
In September 2010, Faxton St. Luke's Healthcare was awarded a $31.3 million grant from New York State which was part of a competitive grant opportunity offered by the New York State Department of Health and the Dormitory Authority. The new construction and expansion to the pre-existing St. Luke's Home was designed to improve long-term care services and consolidate community-based alternatives for Oneida County residents. Continuing care services, including Senior Network Health, Visiting Nurse Association of Utica and Oneida County and Mohawk Valley Home Care, were relocated to the Center for Rehabilitation and Continuing Care Services in 2013, along with an expanded Adult Day Health Care Program.
