Today some of our hospital staff had the pleasure of meeting with retired educators with the Pike County Retired Teacher’s Association for a health fair.

We shared life saving information about recognizing early warning signs for stroke, sepsis, and heart attack and the importance of prevention and regular screenings.

We are grateful to connect with our retired teachers who have given so much to our community. 🫀🧠🏥
