The Redding Rancheria is proposing to build a 180,000-square-foot medical campus on property the Native American tribe owns near the Win-River Resort and Casino just outside Redding.
Besides physician and dental offices, the proposed health village will include a 90,000-square-foot complex devoted to wellness that will contain indoor and outdoor pools and an elevated indoor running track.
To help people develop healthy lifestyles, there will be six indoor demonstration kitchens where whole families can learn healthy cooking from a dietitian. An on-site organic garden, with fruit trees and vegetable crops, is also planned.
It’s designed to be “a one-stop shop,” said Glen Hayward, executive director of Health Service at Redding Rancheria Tribal Health.
