The West Virginia Hospital Association’s recent community benefit report highlighted WVU Medicine Grant Memorial Hospital for its extraordinary expansion of healthcare services in just the past two years, significantly improving access to specialized care across the Potomac Highlands region.
Key additions include a podiatry clinic, wound care services, expanded hours at the GMH Bensenhaver Clinic, and home sleep study capabilities, all aimed at reducing travel for patients and bringing more care options closer to home.
The hospital has also made major technological advancements, such as implementing the EPIC electronic medical record system, upgrading to Philips patient monitors, enhancing lab capabilities, and installing a state-of-the-art 3 Tesla MRI scanner to deliver faster, more detailed imaging.
Serving the tri-county region, GMH continues to enhance its community offerings with the recent opening of an outpatient therapy center. Plans are also underway for a rapid care center to provide walk-in, non-emergency care from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week, helping to alleviate pressure on the emergency department while ensuring timely and affordable access to care.
These efforts underscore GMH’s commitment to delivering high-quality healthcare and expanding services in underserved rural communities.
