March is National Women’s History Month, a time to recognize the strong and determined women who helped shape our communities.

This month, we are proud to honor Gladys Ingalls Robertson, whose vision helped establish the first Red Cross Rural Nursing Association in the United States right here in Hot Springs in 1913.

Through her leadership, the Hot Springs Valley Nursing Association brought visiting nurse services to families across Bath County at a time when access to medical care could require nearly a full day’s journey. In 1916, the Community House was built to serve as headquarters for the nursing service and as a gathering place for the community. Over time, this effort grew into what is now Bath Community Hospital.

More than a century later, her dedication to improving access to care continues to inspire our mission today.

Allyson “Ally” Martin, a radiology student at the University of Charleston, is currently in the first year of the program’s two-year Radiologic Technology program. Bath Community Hospital (B*H) was her first clinical site, where she has gained valuable hands-on experience in a clinical setting.

During her time at B*H, Ally has assisted with a variety of diagnostic radiology exams, provided compassionate care to patients of all ages, and gained experience in a multi-modality imaging environment.

📷 Pictured: In between patients, Ally is practicing positioning and performing the “scapular Y” view, a specialized projection used to evaluate the shoulder, with guidance from Jessica Rucker, Radiologic Technologist, and Kathy Elmore, Radiology Manager.

We’re glad to play a role in supporting the education and training of future healthcare professionals and wish Ally continued success in her radiology journey.

Good nutrition isn’t about perfection. It’s about balance, variety, and making choices that work for you and your lifestyle.

Small changes can make a big difference over time. 🥦🍎
