Program areas at Aultman Hospital
Aultman Hospital is a not-for-profit teaching Hospital serving stark and surrounding counties in northeast Ohio. The Hospital's major programs include women and children's services, emergency and trauma services, heart services, cancer care, neurosurgery, orthopedics and critical-care medicine. Each year, Aultman Hospital provides a significant amount of the area's total care for patients having no government or private health care insurance and no sigificant level of income. Aultman also serves thousands of patients covered by public programs such as medicaid, and payments from these federally funded programs do not always cover the total cost of service. In 2014, Aultman Hospital provided $4,632,781 in net charity care and a medicaid shortfall of $29,318,036.
Aultman provides an array of medical services at community centers located throughout stark and carroll counties. Immediate care services are available for minor injuries and illnesses - seven days a week, every day of the year. Services such as physical and occupational therapy, cardiac rehabilitation, outpatient laboratory services, sports medicine programs and diagnostic testing are also available at the Aultman satellite facilities.
Subacute services: Aultman provides post-acute services at its Aultman woodlawn facility. Aultman woodlawn includes a 60-bed unit for patients requiring skilled nursing care and a 30-bed unit for patients needing rehabilitation. Aultman woodlawn features indoor therapy environments such as a mock kitchen, bedroom, store and gas station - along with an outdoor courtyard featuring a hydroponic garden - to help patients improve their mobility and prepare for discharge. Aultman woodlawn also houses Aultman's hospice, palliative care, home health care and grief services programs.
