Parkview Warsaw is evolving to become Parkview Kosciusko Hospital (PKH) early next year, and as the facility has grown outside, work has also been going on to shape the interior spaces that will serve patients, co-workers and visitors.
An important aspect of those interior spaces is the artwork that will help create a vibrant work environment and an uplifting place for healing. After reviewing images of Kosciusko County life submitted by local amateur and professional photographers, hospital leaders have announced they’ve chosen the photos that will decorate Parkview Kosciusko Hospital.

“The quality of the images we received was truly wonderful,” Scott Gabriel, market president, Parkview Health Northwest, said. “This county is blessed with folks who are very talented with a camera, and our selection committee had some difficult decisions choosing the winners. I think anyone who visits the hospital will be impressed by the artwork and how well it reflects the beauty of this area.”
