Largest-Ever Investment
in Southeast Ohio

In partnership with

Pediatric Emergency Department

With the southeastern part of Ohio being the only corner of the state without pediatric-focused care, our pediatric patients and their loved ones are oftentimes forced to travel hours away from home, as well as already established care with trusted providers, to receive the care they need.

It's for this reason that we not only sought to expand our expertise but to also construct a location to make it an even better fit our region's children.

Partnering with Akron Children's Hospital provides us with the ability to deliver a top-in-nation emergency experience with board-certified pediatric emergency providers who possess years of experience in treating children. Standing alongside our providers are the highly trained nurses and care staff who have been greatly anticipating this development for a long time.

Memorial Health System and Akron Children's Hospital's Pediatric Emergency Department will be located next to the Belpre Emergency Department and will operate every single day of the week and is fully equipped and dedicated to providing expert emergency care for every child.

This partnership brings with it transformative care and capabilities for our region's pediatric care. For us, it brings the joy and pride of keeping our patients local with expert quality of care right here at home. For our community members throughout the region, we hope that 'confidence' is the first word that comes to mind.
