BOLINGBROOK, IL - March 23, 2026 - VNA Health Care marked a significant step forward in its commitment to community wellness today with the grand unveiling of its expanded Bolingbrook Health Center. The newly renovated and enlarged facility, located at 520 East Remington Blvd., directly responds to the growing and evolving healthcare needs of Bolingbrook residents, with a particular focus on pediatric and behavioral health services.

The expansion isn't simply about more space; it represents a strategic investment in a holistic approach to healthcare, recognizing that physical and mental wellbeing are inextricably linked. While VNA Health Care has long been a trusted provider of primary care, women's health, and specialty services in the area, the addition of a dedicated pediatric clinic and expanded behavioral health wing addresses two critical gaps in local service provision.

"We've seen a substantial increase in young families choosing to make Bolingbrook their home," explained Angela Parent, President and CEO of VNA Health Care, during the celebratory event. "With that growth comes an increased demand for specialized pediatric care - not just for well-child visits, but for addressing the complex health challenges children face today. This new clinic ensures our youngest residents receive the highest quality care, close to home."

The dedicated pediatric clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment tailored to the unique needs of children. Beyond routine checkups and vaccinations, the clinic will offer services such as developmental screenings, allergy testing, and management of chronic childhood conditions like asthma and diabetes. The design prioritizes a child-friendly atmosphere, aiming to minimize anxiety and create a positive experience for young patients.

However, the expansion goes beyond addressing physical health. The inclusion of expanded behavioral health services is a response to the escalating national - and local - mental health crisis. The need for accessible mental healthcare has become increasingly apparent in recent years, particularly following the pandemic. VNA Health Care recognizes that mental and emotional wellbeing are fundamental to overall health and has dedicated significant resources to building a comprehensive behavioral health program within the Bolingbrook facility.

These services will encompass individual and family therapy, group counseling, and psychiatric evaluations, addressing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, stress management, and trauma. The facility is staffed by a team of licensed therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists committed to providing compassionate and evidence-based care. Crucially, VNA Health Care emphasizes an integrated approach, working closely with primary care physicians to ensure a seamless and coordinated care experience for patients.

The celebration event drew a large crowd including Village of Bolingbrook officials, highlighting the strong partnership between VNA Health Care and the local government. Mayor Sadiq Mandvi praised VNA Health Care's commitment to the community. "Investing in healthcare is investing in our future," he stated. "This expansion demonstrates VNA's dedication to the health and wellbeing of our residents and strengthens Bolingbrook as a vibrant and thriving community."

Looking ahead, VNA Health Care plans to continue to expand its services and outreach programs in Bolingbrook and throughout Will County. They are actively exploring partnerships with local schools and community organizations to promote preventative care and health education. The organization is also committed to addressing health disparities and ensuring equitable access to care for all members of the community.
