In December 2024, IU Health West will celebrate its hospitals 20th Anniversary. IU Health West Hospital was designed with "on-stage" and "off-stage" corridors and elevators to keep public and visitor movement through the hospital separate from the movement of patients, materials, staff and supplies. Hence, the "day-to-day" operations that go into running a hospital are kept out of the publicly-traveled areas, allowing for a more peaceful, serene and home-like environment. Many elements come together to create what is known as IU Health West Hospital's Sanctuary of Healing—building design and decor, technology and relationship-centered care, to name just a few. The physical environment and our staff work in harmony to create a soothing, stress-free, remarkable healthcare experience for patients and their loved ones. IU Health West Hospital is proud to have earned advanced certification as a Primary Stroke Center from The Joint Commission.
