Toledo, OH – A Toledo long-term acute care hospital is set to close in the coming weeks, resulting in more than 100 job losses and raising concerns about local healthcare access.
According to a WARN notice submitted Thursday, April 9, 2026, to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services, Advanced Specialty Hospitals of Toledo will permanently close its facility at 1015 Garden Lake Parkway effective May 1. The filing states that 116 employees will be impacted, with all positions scheduled to be terminated by June 8.
The hospital is operated by the CommuniCare Family of Companies and serves patients requiring extended medical care. Officials said the closure is part of a broader business decision tied to a recent transaction, though specific details about that transaction were not disclosed in the notice.
The WARN filing indicates that all affected workers are non-union employees and that bumping rights will not apply. Employees are expected to continue receiving wages through their separation date in early June.
Hospital leadership noted that impacted staff have been provided with information on accessing unemployment benefits and additional support services. These include job placement assistance, retraining programs, and counseling resources aimed at easing the transition.
Local workforce officials are expected to coordinate response efforts to help displaced workers find new employment opportunities within the region’s healthcare sector and beyond.
The closure adds to ongoing shifts in Ohio’s healthcare landscape, where facilities have faced financial pressures, staffing challenges, and changing patient care demands in recent years.
No immediate plans for the future use of the Toledo facility have been announced.
