In addition to running Mountain Hearts Wellness Center and offering fitness instruction, facility manager Adam Widner also is tasked with teaching the community’s next generation of swimmers.

But Adam's teaching isn't limited to swimming lessons. He also coaches the Ashe County High School swim team - a position he's held since 2021. While the team hasn’t grown substantially in number, Adam takes pride in watching his team find enjoyment in swimming while further improving its skills.

“I am continually trying to promote the swim team and find new ways to get more children involved,” Adam says. “Swimming has taught me so many things, but I think the most important thing it has taught me is to breathe and relax and keep moving forward.”

Mountain Hearts Wellness Center facility manager takes pride in teaching the next generation of swimmers Adam Widner has always felt at home in the water. The Mountain Hearts Wellness Center facility manager began taking swimming lessons when he was 5 years old and instantly fell in love with the sp...

Quality Care You Can Rely On

For nearly 80 years, Ashe Memorial Hospital has provided the highest quality medical care available to the people of Ashe County and its surrounding areas. Our board-certified physicians, nurses and staff are members of the High Country community and work diligently to keep our community as healthy as possible.

History

In 1941, Ashe Memorial Hospital was established as a not-for-profit hospital to serve rural communities across the Blue Ridge Mountains. While the hospital has grown from a small medical facility to a world-class hospital offering a wide variety of emergency, elective and preventative health services, the focus has remained the same: to provide the highest level of care possible close to where you live.

As a not-for-profit organization, our hospital receives no tax dollars and all profits are reinvested in the facility. Ashe Memorial Hospital is completely owned by shareholders. Anyone can purchase a share for $100. Shareholders get no financial benefit, but they get to elect the 18 community members who serve on our Board of Trustees.
