Independent leadership, financial discipline and community-focused expansion have helped the 1,100-employee Memorial Hospital become a thriving community hospital. Defying national trends, the hospital grew its net patient revenue from $54 million in 2004 to more than $170 million in 2022, reinvesting in projects such as its modern inpatient and outpatient pavilions and the Memorial Heart & Surgical Pavilion, built in partnership with Columbus-based Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. It now offers 24/7 interventional cardiac care, a regional cancer center through The James Cancer Network and advanced orthopedic services like robotic-assisted joint replacements. The hospital enhances wellness with programs like “Mobile Meals” and youth sports medicine outreach. Thanks to its tireless commitment to accessible care delivery, the hospital has received a 5-star CMS rating and nine consecutive “A” safety grades from The Leapfrog Group.
