Press Release
A special event will give local residents an early look at the new Reid Health Connersville campus ahead of its expected opening by the end of March.
An open house featuring guided, 90-minute walking tours of the facility will take place from noon-4 p.m. on Jan. 31 at 2500 Park Road.
“We can’t wait to show everyone what’s in store for them when they come to this state-of-the-art building for care,” said Ben Wells, Reid Health President/CEO.
“Our new campus represents the future of healthcare in Connersville and Fayette County as well as our commitment to continue providing high-quality services to the community for many years to come.”
Those interested in taking part in a tour should go to reidhealth.org/buildup to sign up for a time slot and guarantee their place in line.
There’ll be a standby area for anyone who hasn’t signed up for a tour ahead of time where they can wait for an unclaimed spot in an upcoming tour. Self-guided tours aren’t available.
Hot beverages will be on hand, and the first 1,000 people to attend will receive a special giveaway.
Should weather force a cancellation of the event, there won’t be a makeup date.
Once fully opened, the new Reid Health Connersville will be the home of several services, including:
- The primary care providers from Whitewater Valley Primary Care and Reid Health Primary & Specialty Care – Connersville
- Emergency medicine with an onsite helipad
- Laboratory
- Radiology
- Infusion Therapy
- Respiratory function testing
