Kettering Health is planning to increase its investment in Greene County. This includes additional plans at Kettering Health Greene Memorial and construction timelines for the new Kettering Health Xenia Health Center.
Planned renovations
As part of an ongoing commitment to Greene County, Kettering Health has committed to investing more than $15 million in Kettering Health Greene Memorial, including exterior updates and improvements focused on enhancing the patient experience. In the months ahead, the community will begin to see visible construction activity and exterior campus enhancements.
This spring, Kettering Health will break ground on a new 24,000-square-foot health center at the REACH site in Xenia, a key step in a broader strategy to improve access to care in Greene County and address the area’s primary care shortage.
“These investments, totaling more than $25 million, support projects that will strengthen healthcare in Greene County – both Kettering Health Greene Memorial and the future Kettering Health Xenia Health Center,” said Paul Hoover, president of Kettering Health Greene Memorial and Soin Medical Center. “Our goal is to create high-quality healing environments that prioritize patient safety and intuitive design, enabling our care teams to work together more effectively.”
Gaining services and facilities
Renovations at Kettering Health Greene Memorial are expected to be completed by the end of 2026, with construction of the new health center slated for completion by the end of 2028.
“This moment marks a new dawn for the City of Xenia and our relationship with Kettering Health and Greene Memorial Hospital,” said Ethan Reynolds, Mayor of Xenia. “Kettering Health’s $15 million investment to keep Greene Memorial open, while responsibly removing outdated and unused wings, protects critical healthcare services for Xenia residents and ensures there will be no loss of care. In fact, this partnership positions our community to gain expanded services and modernized facilities. With over $40 million going into this community, it reflects a shared commitment to smart growth, access to care, and meeting people where they are. This is what strong regional partnership looks like, and it sets Xenia on the path toward a stronger, healthier future.”
