Memorial Health is an independent health system that is centered in Marysville. The health system is planning on expanding to a new location in Union County off Route 42. Spence Fisher, Memorial Health’s Executive Vice President, stated in a press release that the company had many patients in southern Union County, so this expansion makes sense to bring services closer to existing patients. He continued to say, “Meeting our patients where they live, work and play is of the utmost importance to Memorial Health. By expanding our services to the Plain City and Jerome area, we are able to deliver the same high-quality, nationally recognized health care that Memorial has become known for."
Patients will be open to use “primary care, specialty care, occupational medicine, ancillary services and urgent care. ”Over the next ten years, the new location will increase services to outpatients as needed.
