Lamprey Health Care's facility in Raymond, N.H. will receive $250,000 and Goodwin Community Health in Somersworth will receive $194,899 for renovations, according to an article on the NHPR website.

The funding comes from the Affordable Care Act.

Lamprey Health Care will use its $250,000 grant to redesign the floor plan and making the entrance more accessible to wheelchairs. 

"Medicine was very different 18 years ago. So part of what this funding is going to be able to do for us is make the facility realign with the way medicine is delivered nowadays," Michelle Gaduet, Lamprey's communications coordinator, said in the article.
