MetroHealth will be opening a hospital at the Severance Circle facility on January 4th. With the addition of 12 beds to the facility, the hospital will be aimed at treating adults with less serious conditions that need short-term hospitalization. There will be no planned newborn deliveries.
The hospital will have a Bikur Cholim room. Further, in an effort to understand the frum community’s needs and cater care to it, MetroHealth has consulted with Rabbi Akiva Feinstein and others.

The team at MetroHealth also said they were working to enhance the patient experience, particularly for the Orthodox community. MetroHealth consulted Rabbi Akiva Feinstein, a full-time chaplain at Montefiore in Beachwood who also works through the Jewish Federation of Cleveland’s chaplaincy program, for advice on better serving the needs of Jewish patients.
