Our Current Status
Our philosophy is based on meeting the evolving healthcare needs
of the communities we serve. Taking a proactive approach to care,
we are constantly evaluating growth opportunities while investing
in advanced medicine and technology. We offer Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI) equipment, an advanced nuclear medicine camera,
a 16-slice (multislice) CT scanner, a low-risk adult catheterization lab, and an extended Emergency Department with a rooftop heliport. We have also renovated our outpatient
and surgery areas to showcase a more healing environment where family can be close by, as well as constructing a discharge elevator to allow
for easier, and more private patient discharge.
Continual upgrades ensure that the people of central Ohio have
access to a vast range of services, from health screening programs
to the latest in advanced surgeries. Moreover, the benefits from services
that once required delays or travel are now conveniently available
nearby.
SRHS is the community leader in promoting wellness in a variety of
medical areas, including pediatrics, obstetrics, surgical services,
intensive care, radiology, social services and more. Our Blood Draw
Clinic is located off the main lobby to reduce the time required
for community members to obtain blood work as outpatients, and the
retail pharmacy fills prescription needs while you wait. In addition, our full-service
cafeteria, Sam's Café, offers families and visitors delicious meals and snacks.
Beyond our main campus (Samaritan Hospital), SRHS offers several
stand-alone facilities providing specialty care. Patients depend
on SRHS centers for family wellness, outpatient testing, sleep disorder
therapy, women's wellness, and rehabilitation.
Supplying extensive healthcare needs requires many capable, well-trained
professionals. SRHS, one of the area's largest employers, employs
more than 650 individuals. Coupled with the generous support of over 290
spirited volunteers, SRHS leads the way in community-based healthcare. Our staff places care at the heart of each and every service.
In addition to Samaritan Hospital, SRHS consists of aims-Occupational
Health Services, Kettering-Samaritan Health Center, Samaritan Health and Rehabilitation
Center, Samaritan Home Care, Samaritan Heart
Services, Samaritan Medical Office Building, Samaritan Professional Park, Samaritan Retail Pharmacy,
Samaritan Sleep Lab, Samaritan Women's Health Services, and several other medical buildings leased to physicians. SRHS has
54 physicians on our active medical staff, offering
a wide modality of care and practices, and over 104 total physician on our Samaritan Medical Staff.
Samaritan Hospital, Kettering-Samaritan Health Center, and Samaritan Home Care are all accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation
of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO) for meeting nationally recognized
health care standards. Samaritan was also the first hospital
in the nation to be awarded the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's
(OSHA) Star Award for its exemplary health and safety program. Additionally, the hospital and many of its facilities
have been recognized by various government agencies.
As medical technology continues to evolve, we strive to meet the
needs and expectations of our patients. No matter what technical
investments or medical innovations are required, you can rely on
SRHS to continue a strong tradition that began in 1912. Because caring
and achieving optimum wellness will always remain our commitment
to you.
