I’m proud of the high-quality care the healthcare workers consistently provide to our patients and our community here in the Basin,” stated Wes Taylor, CEO of Ashley Regional Medical Center.

“Despite unprecedented adversity, rural providers continue to display resiliency and a steadfast commitment to their communities,” said Michael Topchik, National Leader, The Chartis Center for Rural Health. “Honoring the Top 100 is one of the high points of our year.
