Emerus

About Us

Emerus is the joint venture partner with WellSpan that will be operating the two neighborhood hospitals, WellSpan Newberry and WellSpan Shrewsbury, opening in quarter one of 2026. Emerus, the nation’s first and largest operator of neighborhood hospitals, has incorporated a new paradigm into patient care that has significantly improved access to health care for thousands of people, many of whom live in underserved areas where high-quality patient-centric acute episodic and ambulatory clinical services are needed most.

Focusing on excellence, empathy and innovation, Emerus hospitals are organized around the patient and family. This concept allows Emerus and its partners to work with patients while they are healthy to keep them healthy, providing a level of compassionate care and support typically not found at larger hospitals, free-standing emergency rooms or urgent care centers.
