Selection of a health care provider is a personal choice. Most or all of the health care providers performing services in this Hospital are independent contractors who have privileges to practice at the Hospital but they are not Hospital employees, representatives or agents. This includes but is not limited to radiologists, pathologists, emergency physicians, anesthesiologists, hospitalists, surgeons and others.

The Acute Rehab Unit (ARU) at Ottumwa Regional Health Center is the only ARU within in a 75 mile radius of Ottumwa. It is an inpatient rehabilitation unit, and unlike a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) does not require a prior 3 day acute stay for admission. Our Acute Rehabilitation Unit was surveyed by Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) and once again received an unconditional accreditation for a three year period.
