Akron General, Rendina to Partner on National Health & Wellness Campaign

The successful partnership between Akron General and Rendina Healthcare Real Estate, one that produced the 140,000-square-foot Health & Wellness Campus in Green, Ohio, is poised to expand across the nation.

Building on the industry’s gravitation toward consolidated and preventative services, Akron General has created a new subsidiary to expand wellness programs nationwide: Akron General Health & Wellness Innovations. The new entity will identify and advise health systems whose communities stand to benefit from the outreach and convenience wellness centers provide.

Akron General is considered a trailblazer in the health and wellness business with three successful centers that have received national attention. Located in Green, about 10 miles south of Akron, The Akron General Health & Wellness Center is the latest rendition and has garnered several distinguished awards since opening its doors in 2012. The facility offers a broad spectrum of outpatient services, including a 24-hour emergency department and medically supervised fitness programs that are open to the public via membership.

By deploying this model around the country, Akron General will play a pivotal role in the efforts of healthcare organizations as they seek to improve the quality of life within their communities through new methods of healthcare delivery. Rendina would provide capital, and also offer planning, design, development, leasing and management.

Steve Barry, Executive Vice President of Business Development and Leasing for Rendina, sees the opportunity as the next step in a long-running relationship.

Medical Office Building Celebrates Construction Milestone – Will Open with New Hospital

As work continues on the new 175,000 square foot Canyon Vista Regional Health Center, construction of the new on-campus medical office building has reached a milestone. Earlier this month the steel framing for the 55,000 square foot medical office building was completed, and to commemorate the occasion, a beam signing ceremony was held.

Administrators and staff from Canyon Vista Regional Health Center were present at the event, as were local officials and members of the project development team.

“The new medical office building will be a great addition to the new hospital campus,” said Marty Rash, Chairman and CEO, RegionalCare Hospital Partners. “It is exciting to allow the team involved to sign the beam, and then place it on the new building.”

Florida-based Rendina Healthcare Real Estate is developing the new medical office building. Richard Rendina, Chairman and CEO, said the new medical building is intended to complement the new hospital while providing an enhanced environment with direct access to both acute and outpatient services.

The replacement hospital is expected to open in spring 2015. The new medical office building is expected to open in conjunction with the new hospital.

Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion Opens in Petersburg, Va.

It was a heartfelt morning on Jan. 17, as Jerad Hanlon, Chief Operating Officer of Southside Regional Medical Center (SRMC), took the podium to welcome everyone to the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The Rev. Grady Powell, a member of the SRMC Board of Trustees, led the audience in prayer. Mayor Brian Moore followed with a message of faith and hope.

The development of Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion was not only important to the town of Petersburg, it was important to the parties that collaborated to make this project such a success.

The project’s developer, Rendina, has had its own struggles with cancer. In 2006 the company’s founder lost his fight with brain cancer. In 2011 the President and Chief Executive Officer, Richard M. Rendina, overcome his battle against non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.



The Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion is home to SRMC’s new Cancer Center. With the collaboration of Virginia Cancer Institute (VCI), Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion offers oncology services ranging from imaging and examination, to infusion and radiation treatment. The pavilion has doubled the space available for these services and it houses state-of-the-art oncology treatment technology, including two Varian TrueBeam linear accelerators and a GE LightSpeed 4D CT scanner.



In addition to the Cancer Center, a new Women’s Imaging Center has opened in the pavilion, offering Digital Mammography, Breast Ultrasound and Bone Density Screening (DEXA Scan). Tri-Cities OB/GYN, a four-physician practice offering obstetrical and gynecological services for the region, also calls Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion home.

The doors to the $10 million, two-story, 32,500 square foot medical office building are now open and the services are up and operating. The new facility is located adjacent to the hospital at 200 Medical Park Blvd. in Petersburg.

The development of the project was a success due to the collaborative leadership effort from the hospital, the Board of Trustees, Community Health Systems, Rendina, Davis Stokes Collaborative and VIRTEXCO.

Rendina Announces the Completion of Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion

Rendina has completed the new Southside Regional Medical Arts Pavilion, a two-story 32,500 square-foot medical office building in Petersburg, VA. Located on the campus of Southside Regional Medical Center (SRMC), the new medical facility is home to a state-of-the-art Cancer Center, a fully digital Women’s Imaging Center, as well as general medical and obstetrical office space for physicians.
