Major Hospital
New Orthopedic Center Open, Major Hospital Patient Lab to Move

Wonder what those twirling spires are on the north side of I-74 in Intelliplex? The long-anticipated full-service ReNovo Orthopaedic Center opened earlier in July and the high-tech center is now “fully operational,” according to Jack Horner, CEO of Major Health Partners. The ReNovo wind spires actually help generate electricity for the state-of-the-art orthopedic and radiology equipment within the 25,000 sq. ft. ReNovo Center, which is now home to the FORCE (Family Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Center) surgical practice, Major Sports Medicine and the SportWorks Rehabilitation Center.

The new ReNovo Center is one of several planned advances by Major Health Partners for patients and families in Shelby County. The patient center serving the Major Hospital Lab will be moving on Labor Day Weekend from the hospital across the street to the former Major Sports Medicine building on West Washington Street in Shelbyville. Outpatients and those with lab requests should go to the new location beginning Sept. 8 after Labor Day. Patients and families visiting the Major Hospital Lab Patient Center will now have convenient private parking for their lab appointments and a quick and easy visit.

· Overseeding may be done in your yard. Choose from *ExecuTurf Premium Grass Seed Blends or our own Mathies Mix.
