Good Samaritan
Health Center Greenville Set to Open
GREENVILLE, Ohio (June 25, 2015) – Construction is complete on Good
Samaritan Health Center Greenville, a new 7,900 square foot office
building across the street from Wayne HealthCare’s main campus.
Equipment and furniture is being moved in this week, and patients will
begin using the new building starting Monday, June 29.
Good Samaritan Health Center Greenville is a new medical office
building which soon will house the cardiology practice of Dayton Heart
Center Greenville and space for other medical specialties. The new
facility is bringing updated office space and the opportunity for
additional specialty medical services for Darke County residents.
“We are pleased to provide expanded medical services in Darke County,”
said Jim Pancoast, president and CEO of Premier Health. “By working
together with Wayne HealthCare, we are able to offer a range of
advanced healthcare services that support the wellbeing of the Darke
County community.”
“With Good Samaritan Health Center Greenville, we are able to offer a
modern facility with easy access to specialty care,” stated Eloise
Broner, president and CEO of Good Samaritan Hospital. “The building is
opening with cardiac and cardiac imaging services in place, but we
anticipate adding other specialties over time – all designed to benefit
patients and their families.”
Premier Health and Wayne HealthCare have partnered twice before to
improve healthcare access to Darke County residents. The first
collaboration was for cancer services, an area where both systems have
earned recognition from the American College of Surgeons Commission on
Cancer.
The second partnership between Premier Health and Wayne HealthCare came
in the form of TeleStroke services, which provide faster diagnosis and
treatment of stroke through a secure computer connection between the
Premier stroke team and the Wayne emergency department. This connection
allows patients to be examined quickly by a trained stroke specialist,
enabling faster treatment locally or initiation of clot-busting
medications even before the patient is transferred to advanced stroke
care.
“We are pleased to once again partner with Premier Health to offer
convenient cardiology and other specialty services close to home for
our community,” said Wayne Deschambeau, president and CEO of Wayne
HealthCare. “This collaboration is helping to serve the growing medical
needs of our region both now and into the future,” he added.
An official ribbon cutting ceremony and community open house is planned
for later this fall, after the old office building is razed and
additional parking is available.
