Akron (OH) Children’s Hospital to expand into Youngstown area

Akron (OH) Children's Hospital is expanding into the Youngstown, OH, area to fill a void left after Tod Children's Hospital closed in 2007. A $10 million renovation is under way at the former Forum Health campus in Boardman to create a new 32-bed children's hospital, with a full-time emergency department, full-service laboratory, and inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation services. The facility will be called Akron Children's Hospital Mahoning Valley.
