“Adena Health Center Woodlands supports our strategy to make access to health care convenient for people living and working in the communities we serve,” said Jeff Graham, Adena President & CEO. “The clinic will maintain a convenient health care option for plant workers and retirees, as well as those living and working in Chillicothe’s downtown area and east end. Facing closure, and the potential loss of hometown services, the Adena Board of Trustees supported this acquisition as a solution to deliver care for those who dedicate their careers to our local community and economy.”
