Introduction:
HealthSouth Corporation and Mount Carmel Health System have signed an agreement to build a new 60-bed inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Westerville, Ohio.
Features:
The 60-bed hospital will provide specialized rehabilitative care to patients who have experienced stroke, trauma, brain and orthopedic injuries or other major illnesses or injuries.
Construction on the 60,000-square-foot hospital is expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2015 and to be completed by the first quarter of 2017. The freestanding hospital will include 60 all-private rooms, a spacious, on-site therapy gym, a walking path and cutting-edge rehabilitation technologies. The development of the new inpatient rehabilitation hospital represents a significant investment in the community and is expected to generate approximately 100 new, full-time jobs. The hospital will be located north of Mount Carmel St. Ann's near the southwest corner of Cleveland Avenue and Polaris Parkway.
When the new hospital opens in 2017, Mount Carmel will relocate its existing 24-bed unit at Mount Carmel West to the new facility.
