As the health care industry continues to evolve, and the baby boomer population gets older, the demand for medical professionals has steadily increased.

Adena Health announced it will be a Platinum sponsor of the 2019 Buck Fifty Race, as the event’s first-ever sponsor at this level in the race’s 3yr history.

This year marks the 20th anniversary for Adena Health Center – Waverly providing health care services to Pike County and surrounding communities.

Adena Health System has partnered with the Chillicothe Veterans Affairs Medical Center to offer a fully-accredited Psychiatry Residency Program.

Adena Pike Medical Center is 1 of just 3 critical access hospitals in Ohio, and 1 of 27 critical access hospitals in the nation to receive a 5-star rating.

The distinction places the hospital in the top five percent of more than 4,500 U.S. hospitals that are assessed for superior clinical performance by Healthgrades™

Mary Alice Cisco began her career at Adena Pike Medical Center more than 60 years ago and has been a part of the facility’s heart and soul ever since.

The new clinic will be housed within the Mount Logan Elementary School / Early Childhood Center, located at 841 E. Main Street, Chillicothe.
