Mercy Medical Center is home to the Leonard P. Nelson Family Cancer Treatment Center (est. 1996), providing oncology services in the region for the past seventeen years to an area of a 100-mile radius. Patients receive treatment for a wide variety of cancers including breast, gynecologic, head and neck, lung and prostate. Mercy Medical Center broke ground August 24, 2012 on an expanded cancer treatment facility. Improvements include the installation of a highly specialized linear accelerator to increase precision radiation therapy treatment delivery with decreased patient treatment time. The grand opening was October 7, 2013.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.chistalexiushealth.org/locations/williston|title=CHI St. Alexius Health Williston - Primary Care, Family Medicine, 3D Mammography|website=CHI St. Alexius Health|accessdate=February 16, 2021}}</ref> Mercy Medical Center was named among the Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs) in the United States by The Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations in September 2012.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/news-analysis/top-100-critical-access-hospitals-named-by-ivantage.html|title=Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals Named by iVantage|website=www.beckershospitalreview.com|date=March 14, 2013 |accessdate=February 16, 2021}}</ref>
