Our local EDs battle the same challenges as facilities across the US.
There are several reasons for the long wait times.
If folks would consider using their primary care doctors or StatCares, the EDs would be available for true emergencies. 
EDs' purpose is not to serve as primary care physicians. However, that is the role that these departments provide for many people.  This is a burden on the system at many levels.

People visiting Stark County emergency rooms this season could be waiting longer than expected. See link below ⬇️ bit.ly/3Ob7yBD

The original Aultman Hospital...

134 years ago TODAY, on Jan. 17, 1892, Aultman Hospital opened its doors.

As the first hospital in Stark County, the facility contained 40 rooms with space for 56 patients.

A lot has changed since 1892 – now, Aultman is the only independent, full-service healthcare system in the region.

With 1,032 beds, over 1,000 active providers and a team of more than 7,000 employees, Aultman is Stark County's largest provider of healthcare services.

Today, we want to thank YOU - our friends, patients and neighbors - for trusting us with your care. We celebrate the last 134 years and look forward to caring for our community for years to come!

Folks--
The EDs are overwhelmed with flu-like symptoms.
This overcrowding is stretching resources for higher-triaged patients.
If your symptoms are beyond OTC meds to minimize symptoms, please choose the correct facility for treatment.
And, THANK YOU to the ED staffs for your tireless efforts in addressing the needs of our communities.

It has been a GREAT run working with this guy!!
For 15 years, he's been serving our patients in their time of need.
He is now ready to slow down and only work his full-time job with Canton City FD.
Thank you, Medic Adam Rich, for your commitment to caring for our community and for your camaraderie over the years!
You're an asset to any agency.
THANK YOU!!
We wish you only the best!!
(And, know that you're welcome back at anytime!😊)
