More about PUTNAM COUNTY HOSPITAL

Staffing carries a CMS Grade A mark with 2.24 RNs per bed, a reported daily census around two, and about 61% occupancy—so the floor can feel small and steady rather than packed. Patients rate the place well on respect, listening, and clear explanations, and 77% say they would recommend it. Local residents voted it Best of the Best healthcare facility in Putnam County, the Cancer Center holds Commission on Cancer accreditation through 2029 with zero deficiencies, and the ED once received an Innovation in Quality Improvement Award from the Indiana State Office of Rural Health. Pay figures are not posted in the materials we have, and a state audit of the 2021 financials issued a disclaimer of opinion over inadequate long-term care accounting records. If you want a rural CAH with real service lines and quieter census numbers, this is the setting.
