The new Center for Health Sciences on Pfeiffer University’s satellite campus in Albemarle, N.C., prepares future health care workers and instills in them a passion for providing health care for rural communities. The center accommodates the university’s expanded Master of Physician Assistant Studies and Master of Occupational Therapy programs. The four-story building contains classrooms, offices, a simulated hospital (ICU, surgical suite and an ER trauma bay), a cadaver lab and an outpatient health clinic. The center’s success has led to economic and social growth and celebrates the community’s rich history. Pfeiffer University and the city of Albemarle are looking ahead to bring more education programs, restaurants, entertainment, retail businesses and housing to the downtown area.
