The West Virginia University dual degree MSN/MBA provides future nurse leaders with the knowledge and expertise to think strategically, solve problems and excel in various health care settings. Now is the time to take the lead. GO FIRST. Pocahontas Memorial Hospital (PMH) has been a vital part of its community for nearly 120 years. As the face of health care delivery continues to change, PMH staff and leadership are finding new ways to provide for patients. PMH is proud to offer new services that allow patients to remain close to home for critical treatments, including a weekly wound care clinic and an outpatient nursing clinic for IV therapies, blood and medical transfusions and cancer adjunct therapies. Staff will soon roll out a brand-new outlying extension of its physical therapy department for patients in the northern part of the county who cannot make the trip to the hospital for care.
