Personally I don't think I would be here if it weren't doe Health Right. I lost my job and have several medical issues including diabetes. The staff I. The pharmacy are always friendly and make sure I am well taken care of. The nurses and Staff in the clinic are always extremely attentive to my needs. If I am not well the front staff get me in right away. Thank you for all you to do not only for me but the thousand others who you serve on a yearly basis

As a volunteer, I helped with different areas of care. My first day I was overwhelmed at the number of prescriptions that were filled in a day. I realized most of these people would go without their medicines if not for Health Right. I also helped with filing papers on charts and noticed the extent of care these patients recieved. They treated simple colds to major life threarening illnesses. So many of the doctors do volunteer work to help the underprivledged. The doctors were psychiatrist, OB and gyne doctors, cardiologist, family doctors and more. All were treated with respect and dignity and made to feel that their life mattered. The community would be in dire need of care if Wheeling Health Right did not exist. They make community care important to people not just in Wheeling but many counties in WV and Ohio. Their special programs include going out into the community for Diabetic education, smoking cessation, Baby and child care and many other helpful programs.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
My son is a patient and without Wheeling Health Right, he would not be able to afford his medication or have a doctor to examine him.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Increase the number of patients they were able to see. Also I would make longer hours of operation so that people wouldn't have to wait to see a doctor.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the feeling of fullfillment. It is so nice when someone you've helped looks at you with such gratitude in their eyes. You know then that you have helped someone.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
kind, helpful, friendly and mostly caring.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
build a larger service area, have the money for funding special programs for the community and afford to get a bigger staff.
Ways to make it better...
I could have more time to devote to helping. Maybe be a staff member some day
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
funding and working within the guidelines of government.
One thing I'd also say is that...
It was an honor and privledge to help Wheeling Health Right any way I could. I work full time now so am not able to help but I do miss it.

I have been very fortunate to become involved with this great organization as it has served people in need for 25 years. They do incredible work and our community - covering multiple counties across both West Virginia and Ohio - would be much worse off without it.

My mother owes her life to this nonprofit organization. She was able to be admitted to the hospital through the emergency department because this is a service offered by Wheeling Health Right. Dr. Commerci, her family physician, consulted a surgeon when she was admitted and she was found to have a life threatening fatal infection known as necrotizing fascitis (tissue eating bacteria). She was transported via ambulance to Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh after having one surgery to try to contain the bacteria. The surgery was not a success and she needed more specialized surgeon and care that were not provided at Wheeling hospital. She ended up having 22 total surgeries, a wound vac placed, and went into acute renal failure. If she was not able to go to the hospital because of Health Right in the first place, she would be dead today! Thank you for saving my mother's life and allowing her to continue being an awesome mother. Thanks to Kathie Brown, the president of this organization, as her dedication to her patient's, patient's families, physicians, and staff has exceeded all expectations. Wheeling Health Right still provides care to my mother today and she receives her medications here as well. The staff are friendly, empathetic and always willing to help. Please keep nonprofit health care organizations such as this one up and running for those individuals that are not fortunate enough to be able to afford health care. I highly recommend Wheeling Health Right to anyone!!
