At Wood County Hospital, professional excellence and personalized care are our overriding goals. This is evident by the caliber of our staff and their commitment to our patients and their families. This commitment to caring has been the foundation of our growth since we accepted our first patient on August 14, 1951.

More than one-third of adults age 65 and older fall each year. Falls are the leading cause of accidental deaths and 95 percent of all hip fractures in the older population. Wood County Hospital is sponsoring a community health program on fall prevention on Thursday, March 18 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the Bowling Green Community Center, 1245 W. Newton Road. Staff from the Rehabilitation Services Department will discuss ways that people can improve their balance and reduce their risk of falls. The free program is part of the hospital’s HealthMatters Lecture Series.
