Research Trials
The Orthopedic Hospital participates with Fort Wayne Orthopedics in research trials that enable physicians to constantly learn about new technology. In some cases, research studies allow physicians to work on projects in which only a few other sites in the nation are participating. Each study's treatment options are carefully evaluated for their potential to improve care.
All Private Rooms Designed for Orthopedic Needs
The Orthopedic Hospital has 43 private inpatient rooms built specifically to treat patients with orthopedic needs. To ensure a comfortable stay, the hospital's all-private patient rooms include:
- Beds specially designed for patient care
- Dedicated "family" area for visitor comfort
- Flat-panel televisions
- Room service
- Spacious bathrooms, built for safety with roll-in showers and hand-held shower heads

Outpatient procedures requiring a 23-hour stay or less take place at The Orthopedic Hospital's outpatient surgery center, 7601 W. Jefferson Blvd., Suite 101. Patients recover in private rooms and receive one-to-one nursing care. Those who stay overnight at this location are discharged the next morning by their physicians.
