Carlinville Area Hospital is a licensed 25-bed acute care hospital that provides a wide range of inpatient, outpatient and emergency services. A variety of other services are available to patients on an inpatient and outpatient basis through the Hospital’s Cardiopulmonary, Imaging, Laboratory and Rehabilitative Services, including Physical, Occupational, Speech and Aqua Therapy, as well as Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation. Nine physicians currently represent the Active Medical Staff at Carlinville Area Hospital. Their specialties include General and Family Practice, Geriatrics, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics and Orthopedics. More than 20 physicians, representing over a dozen specialties, are available to see patients locally through the Hospital’s Outpatient Specialty Clinic. Carlinville Area Hospital offers a 24-hour STAT Stroke and STAT Heart designated emergency department staffed with emergency medicine physicians. These physicians also act as Hospitalists, which means they can admit and care for patients who do not have a physician that regularly admits patients at the Hospital. Staff physicians may also elect to use the Hospitalists to assist in managing the care of their own admitted patients. Skilled nursing and rehabilitative care is available at Carlinville Area Hospital through our Transitional Care Unit (TCU). If someone is recovering from surgery, stroke, fracture or an extended medical illness and hospitalization, they can choose to rehabilitate at Carlinville Area Hospital, whether they were hospitalized in Carlinville, Springfield, St. Louis or elsewhere. In Fall of 2015, Carlinville Area Hospital added an on-site 28,000 sq. ft. Medical Office Building. The new medical office building houses Springfield Clinic Carlinville, Carlinville Family Health Care, an expanded Physical and Occupational Therapy Department, which includes Aqua Therapy, Senior Behavioral Health Program and a community room.
