It has been said that a great leader's courage to fulfill a vision comes from passion. Although the boards of Monongahela Valley Hospital (MVH) and its parent organization, Mon-Vale Health Resources, Inc. (MVHR), are composed of individuals from diverse backgrounds, these leaders share a common vision and passion. These men and women, who are among some of the area's most respected business, medical and community leaders, passionately provide vision to the hospital and its affiliated organizations as the health care providers fulfill their missions to enhance the health of the residents of the mid-Monongahela Valley area. On June 18, MVH and MVHR reelected their boards.
