History of Aultman

Elizabeth Harter, daughter of manufacturer and banker Cornelius Aultman, and stepmother Katherine Barron Aultman deeded 4.5 acres of land to the Aultman Hospital Association in 1891 and Aultman Hospital opened its doors soon after on Jan. 17, 1892. For over 130 years, Aultman has provided quality health care services and the latest technology to our community.

Click through the years below for a quick glance at just a few of the innovations we've made since the beginning.

2023 was another year of growth for Aultman services across the system. The Dover Health Center of Aultman Orrville Hospital opened its doors in February, offering Dover residents a new primary care option close to home. That same month, Aultman Lab Services opened a draw station in Doylestown. With an order from their provider, local patients could now simply walk in for bloodwork. In March, Aultman Medical Group Women’s Health Services opened an additional location in Massillon, again providing more convenience for community members. In July, the Aultman Sleep Center opened a new location in Dover, offering community members a convenient full-service sleep center for sleep studies and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titrations.
In March, Aultman Woodlawn received approval to increase the number of patient beds for inpatient rehabilitation. This expansion allowed us to provide short-term rehabilitation to additional patients. And with the Compassionate Care Center and home healthcare (Aultman Health Care in Your Home) also available on campus, Aultman Woodlawn is able to provide much needed care and support to even more of our families, friends and neighbors.
Aultman began offering Inspire sleep technology to treat obstructive sleep apnea in June of 2023. A great solution to help patients get the consistent quality sleep they need, Inspire is an implantable device. It is recommended for those patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea who cannot tolerate a CPAP machine. The Inspire option is available at Aultman Hospital, Aultman Alliance Community Hospital and Aultman Orrville Hospital.
Aultman Medical Group Family Medicine of Louisville opened its doors in early September, to accept new patients. Located in the same building as AultmanNow Urgent Care, therapy services, lab services and cardiology, this new office offered a new primary care option for the Louisville community. In addition, September marked the expansion of Aultman General Surgery into the Alliance and Hartville communities, again making high-quality care close to home a reality for more local residents.
In October, AultCare President Jim Savage announced his retirement, which was effective Dec. 31, 2023. Jim had served in a variety of leadership roles across the Aultman system in his 30-plus years with the organization. Jim was succeeded by Mark Wright, chief financial officer of Aultman Health Foundation, who brought nearly 30 years of experience and service at Aultman to his new role.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held in November of 2023 for the new Aultman Orrville Carrollton Schools Health Center. Located on the Carrollton Schools campus, the health center provides wellness exams, sick visits, sports physicals and other primary care services to students, staff and the general public. The clinic is Aultman’s second primary care office in Carrollton, joining Aultman Orrville Carrollton Health Center to provide high-quality healthcare for community members of all ages. The two Carrollton offices are among seven Aultman Orrville Hospital Rural Health Clinics, serving communities in Carroll, Stark, Tuscarawas and Wayne counties.

In March, the Ohio Department of Health awarded Aultman a $1.9 million grant to bring primary and preventive care services to Northeast Ohio schools, as part of Governor Mike DeWine’s $25.9 million statewide initiative to open or expand school-based health centers throughout Ohio. This grant improved access to primary care telehealth and other services for students and staff at five rural school districts. As a result, new school-based health clinics were opened in Brown Local, Claymont City, Minerva Local and Tuscarawas Valley Local school districts. In addition, the existing school-based health clinic in Carrollton Exempted Village school district was expanded.
In June of 2022, Aultman introduced our first mobile app, Aultman AnyWhere, allowing consumers to take their healthcare anywhere and everywhere! Aultman patients can download the free app to pay their bills, schedule appointments, check urgent care wait times, find a specialist, get directions and more.
In early September, after years of planning, preparation, fundraising and hard work, Aultman's new Timken Family Cancer Center was officially completed. This milestone was celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the state-of-the-art facility. The doors to the center were opened on Monday, Sept. 12 for the first patient, Kermit Savage, to be welcomed in.
In late September 2022, the chapel in the Compassionate Care Center, located on the Aultman Woodlawn campus, was formally dedicated as the Roth Family Chapel to recognize former CEO Edward J. Roth III’smany years of leadership and commitment to Aultman Health Foundation. During his tenure as CEO, Ed was instrumental in many significant projects; however, the Compassionate Care Center was always one of his most special. This amazing center was created under his leadership, and it remains Stark County’s only freestanding, inpatient hospice facility.
Late 2022 was a time of growth for many Aultman services and locations! The Aultman Hartville campus officially opened, bringing both primary care and cardiology options to the community. In addition, Aultman Therapy Services opened a new location in Dover, at the Tuscarawas County YMCA. Also, the Aultman Back and Spine Center was launched to provide comprehensive care for patients struggling with back and spine pain and issues.

In late 2021, Aultman became the first hospital in Stark County to offer the Paxman Scalp Cooling System – also known as “cold cap” – to help reduce hair loss for patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. Chemotherapy-induced hair loss is widely recognized as the most feared side effect associated with cancer treatment. The success rate for scalp cooling is up to 70% for some chemotherapy regimens and there is evidence that scalp cooling encourages faster, healthier and stronger regrowth than would occur without scalp cooling.
The fourth AultmanNow Urgent Care Center opened in Jackson Township in late August. The facility, located at 7066 Fulton Drive NW, features a 1,600-square-foot contemporary, open-concept design and modern amenities in addition to full X-ray capabilities and several on-site lab testing and imaging options. Designed to make care more convenient and accessible for patients, AultmanNow Urgent Cares are able to treat a wide variety of health concerns and also offer sports and work physicals for minors.
In early May, Aultman broke ground on the Timken Family Cancer Center, which is tentatively scheduled for a summer 2022 opening. When completed, the 58,270-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility will advance clinical care, improve patient experience and strengthen community services, helping make care more convenient for patients and their caregivers. In late October, the final steel beams, including one adorned with the signatures of roughly 450 Aultman colleagues, patients, family members and community leaders, were raised into place as the new cancer center reached a construction milestone. The raising of the final steel beam is a milestone that marks the last major hurdle of construction as it shifts its focus to completing the exterior of the building.
After 20 years at the helm of Stark County’s largest employer, Ed Roth stepped down as president and CEO of Aultman Health Foundation. Effective July 1, his successor, Rick Haines took over the position. Rick had previously served as the president and CEO of AultCare, a position he held since 2001. Rick has been with the Aultman Health Foundation in various roles for 40 years.
To help distribute more COVID-19 vaccines and provide easy access for the community, Aultman began providing free walk-up mobile vaccine clinics in early May. These clinics expanded to all areas in Stark County and continued on a regular basis well into 2022. All community members, aged 16 and older, were invited to receive the vaccine simply by visiting a clinic.
Aultman College had a lot to celebrate in 2021. In March, they announced their first graduating class of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program. The college also received several honors throughout the year from various organizations and websites. First, the college preparedness website BestValueSchools.org named Aultman College one of the best nursing schools in Ohio, ranking 15^th in the state. Nursing advocacy website RegisteredNursing.org then named Aultman College the top online program for registered nurses to earn their bachelor’s degrees, raking first in Ohio. The same website also ranked the college’s RN to BSN program as one of the best online programs in the nation. Out of 518 programs considered, Aultman College ranked eighth. And finally, the Nursing Schools Almanac named Aultman College one of Ohio’s best associate degree in nursing programs. It was also the highest ranked program in the Akron-Canton region.
In July, Aultman Orrville Hospital celebrated its 70^th anniversary. Originally called Dunlap Memorial Hospital, the organization officially opened its doors on July 3, 1951, serving Orrville and the surrounding communities. Aultman Orrville Hospital commemorated the anniversary with a special logo, signage and advertising.

Renovations commenced on the Timken Family Cancer Center, a $28 million, 58,270-square-foot comprehensive center for cancer-related services at Aultman Hospital. The renovations cover 13,270 square feet of existing space at Aultman and groundbreaking on new construction will start in spring of 2021. The state-of-the-art facility will bring all cancer-related services together under one roof, enhancing the patient experience with seamless navigation to convenient, compassionate, high-quality care. The center is named after the $3 million contribution made by The Timken Foundation.
Aultman Health Foundation and Pomerene Hospital entered into a management agreement that will allow Pomerene to become an Aultman affiliate, effective Jan. 1, 2021. The affiliation will unite the Holmes County community hospital with a regional health care center, providing a continuum of care for the residents of Holmes County and beyond. Aultman and Pomerene have a long-established relationship, and the affiliation of the two further aligns Aultman’s vision of developing a streamlined, locally owned, integrated system of health care services for the communities they serve.
Aultman College announced a new phlebotomist training program. The first class will start in spring of 2021 and blends six weeks of online and in-person lab instruction with an on-site practicum rotation. Upon completion of the program, students will be eligible to sit for the National Healthcareer Association’s (NHA) Phlebotomy Technician Certification (CPT) examination.
CommQuest Services and Aultman joined forces to open a withdrawal management unit within Aultman Hospital. Under this partnership agreement, CommQuest Services will operate a withdrawal management unit, focusing on addiction services, serving individuals who are in crisis and in need of recovery treatment. The new program allows CommQuest and Aultman staff to collaborate and facilitate individual needs related to withdrawal management for those patients who may be treated in the hospital.
Aultman closed its immediate care locations in Louisville and Massillon to make way for sleek, convenient AultmanNow urgent care facilities. The Louisville location reopened in the fall as a new AultmanNow Urgent Care Center. It joined existing locations at the Aultman North campus (6100 Whipple Ave.) and Washington Square (2203 East Maple St.). AultmanNow Urgent Cares are able to treat a wide variety of minor injuries and illnesses when primary care provider is not available. The facilities are designed to make care faster and more convenient for patients, and offer full X-ray capabilities and several on-site lab test options.
In early 2020, the start of the COVID-19 pandemic prompted Aultman to enter crisis management mode across our organizations. In a matter of days, our lives were turned upside down and pretty much everything went virtual, including doctor’s appointments, meetings and community events. Our focus quickly turned to the health and safety of our patients, health plan enrollees, college students, volunteers, the communities we serve and our Aultman team.

Akron Children’s Hospital assumed operations of Aultman’s neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and maternal fetal medicine practice at Aultman Hospital.

Founded in 1969, The Women’s Board of Aultman Hospital celebrated 50 years of community engagement and fundraising in 2019.

The partnership combined a regional health care center with a community hospital in a continuum of care serving the residents of Stark County and beyond.
Drs. M. Rizwan Sardar and Firas Hamdan of Aultman’s Specialized Heart & Valve Center performed the first Watchman device procedure at Aultman Hospital. The minimally invasive procedure places a roughly quarter-sized implant into the left atrium of the heart, reducing the risk of blood clots and stroke while offering new hope to patients living with atrial fibrillation (AFib) who want an alternative to taking blood-thinning medication such as Coumadin.
The AultmanNow telehealth app was introduced, allowing individuals to visit a doctor online - 24 hours a day, seven days a week - through a smartphone, tablet or computer.
On March 5, Aultman’s first carotid artery stent procedure was completed by Dr. Jeffrey Prem and the hybrid OR team.

Akron Children’s Hospital assumed operations of Aultman’s 27-bed pediatric unit. The partnership created a structure to meet the pediatric needs of our community, as this is the only dedicated pediatrics unit in Stark County, while allowing both organizations to gain efficiency from shared resource allocations. The pediatric unit partnership built upon Aultman’s five-year collaboration with Akron Children’s on endeavors such as outpatient pediatric specialty clinics.
