Van Wert County Hospital Surgery & In-Patient Expansion

Weigand Construction has partnered with Van Wert Health for more than a decade to help them further their mission and provide the best care and services to the Northwest Ohio community. The Van Wert County Hospital 84,000 square foot surgery and in-patient expansion is the largest in the hospital’s history, and was completed in October of 2020. The new main lobby and parking area were built to give patients and visitors a more comfortable and convenient hospital experience and a more modern aesthetic.

Van Wert Health and Weigand Construction have enjoyed a longstanding relationship, furthered by Weigand’s selection as a lead contractor for the creation of Van Wert Health’s new outpatient facility, completed in 2018. The nearly 19,000 square-foot facility will give patients access to a walk-in clinic, family medicine, physical medicine and rehabilitation, occupational health, a specialist clinic, laboratory, and imaging services, which will include open MRI, CT scan, and X-ray capabilities.

This new facility has the region’s largest open MRI with a 1.2-tesla advanced high-field magnet, which is the strongest open air scanner available, and can accomodate patients up to 600lbs. The walk-in clinic helps people with medical issues that aren’t quite an emergency, but need to be seen that day such as abdominal pain, allergies/allergic reactions, animal bites, asthma, bladder infections, ear infection, strep throat, strains and sprains, and other non-emergency situations.
