The Sanders Trust announced the recent completion of the Mercy Health Rehabilitation Hospital located in Youngstown, Ohio, which officially opened its doors to care for its first patient on November 18, 2024.
The Sanders Trust was selected as the developer of the two-story, 66,000-square-foot hospital that will include 60 beds.

With additional multidisciplinary therapy gyms outfitted with the latest therapeutic technologies, outdoor courtyards and even a small apartment that includes a simulated kitchen and bathroom, the facility supports patients as they prepare to return to activities of daily living.
The project is a joint venture between Lifepoint Rehabilitation, a business unit of Lifepoint Health, and Mercy Health. Lifepoint Health serves patients, clinicians, communities, and partners across the healthcare continuum.
Their diversified healthcare delivery network extends from coast to coast, consisting of community hospitals, rehabilitation and behavioral health hospitals, and additional sites of care.
