Mercer Health’s Childbirth Center expansion and renovation has received a generous donation of $50,000 from Cooper Farms. The project aims to provide a safer space for cesarean procedures, additional space for increasing births, an enhanced nursery for unique situations, and continued quality childbirth services for the local community. This is part of the Delivering on a Promise campaign, which was started last summer with a $1 million donation from the Walter and Evelyn Braun Family. Additional donations totaling over $600,000 have been made to the MED Foundation in support of the project.
Deb Hemmelgarn, Director of the MED Foundation and Volunteer Services at Mercer Health, emphasizes the importance of adequate funding for the project. With an increasing number of births each year, additional space is required to accommodate the growing demand for childbirth services. Hemmelgarn highlights that childbirth centers are closing in Ohio and across the nation due to declining revenue and competition from hospitals. However, Mercer Health is enhancing its services due to its commitment to the community and the community’s commitment to them.
The project includes renovating existing spaces within Mercer County Community Hospital’s Childbirth Center and adding new rooms to accommodate more patients. The expanded facility will offer state-of-the-art equipment and technology to ensure safe and efficient deliveries. It will also provide a more comfortable experience for patients during their stay in hospital.
