Health Education
Plateau Medical Center's health education department supports both our community and our hospital's mission by providing educational programs to meet the needs of patients, their families, healthcare professionals and the community of southern West Virginia.
- Inpatient education is provided by the caregiver to help the patient understand the illness that's afflicting them. The education can also be provided to family or significant other.
- Staff education is provided based on the needs of our staff: programs include orientation for all new employees, as well as annual review for current staff.
- Plateau Medical Center also takes part in competency-based programs for our staff.
