With three hospitals, a growing medical group, and locations serving an 18-county area across Western Kentucky and Southern Indiana, Owensboro Health is the region s healthcare leader and is well-positioned for more growth in the future. In fact, Owensboro Health is Kentucky s largest private employer west of Louisville and is the largest healthcare facility in Western Kentucky.

Our 477-bed flagship hospital, opened in 2013 after a 5-year design and construction process, replacing the previous hospital that began around 1938. OHRH is one of the most advanced hospitals in Kentucky, with a sophisticated Epic system, a 32-bed ICU/CCU/Trauma ICU, and a patient tower built to maximize efficiency and improve the patient experience. The hospital is also beautifully designed, winning numerous awards for architecture and becoming the first hospital in the world to be certified by Audubon International.
