Celebrating Mon Health’s Partnership with the WV Division of Rehabilitation Services

09/12/25

Mon Health Medical Center has long been recognized as a leader in healthcare excellence, but its commitment extends far beyond patient care. Through a strong partnership with the West Virginia Division of Rehabilitation Services (WV DRS), Mon Health has demonstrated its dedication to supporting individuals with disabilities in achieving meaningful employment.

By actively participating in the WV DRS On-the-Job Training program, Mon Health has welcomed consumers into hospital-based roles where they can gain hands-on experience, develop new skills, and build careers in healthcare. This partnership not only provides individuals with valuable opportunities for growth but also enriches the hospital’s workforce with diverse talents and perspectives.

At the heart of Mon Health’s involvement is its mission: “Enhance the health of our communities through clinical excellence, one person at a time.” This mission is reflected not only in the care provided to patients, but also in the way Mon Health invests in the communities it serves. By embracing inclusive hiring practices and empowering individuals through training and mentorship, Mon Health exemplifies how healthcare organizations can strengthen both their teams and their communities.

The impact of this collaboration with WV DRS is far-reaching. Consumers gain confidence, skills, and a pathway to long-term employment, while Mon Health benefits from a dedicated workforce that shares in its commitment to compassionate, quality care. Together, Mon Health and WV DRS have built a model of partnership that demonstrates the power of opportunity, inclusion, and shared mission.

For these reasons, Mon Health Medical Center is a deserving recipient of this employer award honoring not just what they do inside hospital walls, but how they extend hope, dignity, and opportunity to individuals across West Virginia.
