Paulding, OH: Kiwanis member Naomi Nicely introduced Paulding County Hospital\u2019s new CEO Ron Goedde. Goedde grew up in Leipsic and later moved to Toledo where we met his wife. He spent 30 years in Toledo and received a degree in nursing from the University of Toledo. Working in the healthcare field he has worked for Mercy Health, and the University of Toledo Medical Center. He has a great interest in working for independent hospitals and his dream has been to manage a hospital in a community close knit like Paulding. \u201cYou know the people you care for in a small-town hospital, and that\u2019s what I love,\u201d says Goedde. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hospital had 5,300 emergency room visits, and 20,000 clinic visits in 2018. Goedde said, \u201cPaulding County Hospital is a lot more than a band aid station.\u201d 99% of patients that come to PCH are treated there and can find the same level of care as a bigger hospital. Many people receive cancer treatment and other treatments at the hospital. In fact, the hospital is utilizing \u2018smart drugs\u2019 that are specialized to the person and their treatment needs. Bloodwork taken at PCH can be sent away to be tested. The results are sent back to PCH and the hospital can administer the specialized \u2018smart drug\u2019 to the patient. A change to the PCH services is the closing of home healthcare. \u201cWe\u2019re being outdone by other companies,\u201d says Goedde. \u201cWe\u2019ll step back and let them do what they do well.\u201d The money saved by cutting home healthcare will keep the hospital alive longer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goedde is focused on working with all health care around us and is dedicated to making Paulding County Hospital a place for excellent treatment and comforting care. Kiwanis thanks his for his willingness to serve the Paulding county community. Kiwanis members will meet next Thursday over lunch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
