When flooding threatened @Salyersville Nursing & Rehabilitation (SNRC), ARH rose to the occasion, working with SNRC staff to ensure that the patients received the care they needed. Our teams at Morgan County ARH and ARH Our Lady of the Way provided specialized care for those in need, showing the strength of our communities in times of crisis. Following the support provided by ARH during the evacuation efforts, staff at SNRC wanted to pay it forward. They organized a facility-wide food drive to contribute to ARH’s March initiative, helping those facing food insecurity. SNRC staff collected and transported donations to Morgan County ARH to send to God’s Pantry, ensuring they reached families in need.

ARH NEWS RELEASE: ARH to launch Allied Health Training Academy ARH is set to transform healthcare workforce development in eastern Kentucky with the launch of a new Allied Health Training Academy in Hazard, Ky. Made possible through a $6.7 million grant from the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA), the academy is a key component of Shaping Our Appalachian Region’s (SOAR) broader $40 million Recompete Pilot Program. In partnership with the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS), the ARH Allied Health Training Academy will offer education and hands-on training for Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs), medical assistants and nursing assistants. ARH Assistant Vice President of Workforce Initiatives Dylon Baker said the academy will provide career pathways for unemployed adults, ages 25-54, while addressing a critical shortage of skilled healthcare professionals in eastern Kentucky. “The academy will be a gamechanger for both our organization and for the region,” Baker said. “Those positions – LPNs, medical assistants and nursing assistants – are not just current workforce needs at ARH but are positions that will continue to be in high-demand looking ahead as well.” Additionally, Baker said the positions often serve as steppingstones for those looking to further their careers in healthcare.
