Carson City South Gateway Medical Supply Hub – US‑395 & Spooner Summit
Nevada’s capital relies on rapid support for Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center, Carson City Fire Department, state agency clinics, Western Nevada College, Douglas County resorts, and Lake Tahoe travelers. Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #1648 at 3770 US Highway 395 South stages supplies for trauma bays, ambulatory surgery centers, EMS squads, NDOT incident teams, and Nevada Guard units without waiting on Reno fulfillment.
Within 30 miles are Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center, Carson Tahoe Sierra Surgery, Renown South Meadows, Douglas County EOC, Minden-Tahoe Airport, Stateline resorts, Western Nevada Correctional Center, and the US‑50/US‑395/Interstate 580 logistics triangle. Sierra blizzards, wildfires, special legislative sessions, Ironman Lake Tahoe events, and casino surges demand a “medical suppliers near me” operation built for ICS playbooks—this South Carson hub delivers.
Carson City transitioned from territorial mining depot to modern capital housing laboratories, courts, and federal agencies serving the entire Silver State. LAC Health supports that evolution with generator-backed cold storage, bilingual (English/Spanish) documentation, and workflows aligned with Nevada Division of Emergency Management, Quad County Healthcare Coalition, and Douglas/Carson Mutual Aid.
