The hospital employs about 200 employees, who are a mix of new hires and employees who worked at other Kettering Health locations. The president is Eric Lunde, who had been executive director of the Brain and Spine Service Line.
The hospital means a second major health network in Miami County, which for years has been served by Upper Valley Medical Center, operated by Kettering Health’s competitor, Dayton-based Premier Health.
The hospital held a ribbon cutting on June 6 and hosted several events with tours of the new space prior to the official opening today.
