JEFFERSON COUNTY, Ohio — The Ohio Valley Health Center is entering a new chapter as longtime volunteer Alisa DelGuzzo has been selected to serve as the organization’s next executive director.
DelGuzzo brings more than 20 years of experience in healthcare, business and management to the position. She has also been closely involved with the nonprofit clinic, volunteering for more than four years and serving on the executive committee for its annual fundraising gala.
A native of St. Clairsville, DelGuzzo has spent the past several months working alongside outgoing Executive Director Ann Quillen, who is retiring after leading the Ohio Valley Health Center for 14 years.
Quillen said it has been an honor to serve the organization and expressed confidence that DelGuzzo is well prepared to continue its mission of providing healthcare services to those in need.
As she takes over the role, DelGuzzo said one of her top priorities is increasing awareness of the health center’s services, particularly in rural communities where residents may not know affordable healthcare options are available.
She also hopes to continue expanding the clinic’s programs and initiatives while maintaining its commitment to providing care regardless of a patient’s ability to pay.
The Ohio Valley Health Center offers medical, dental and behavioral health services to uninsured and underinsured residents throughout the region and plans to continue growing its outreach under DelGuzzo’s leadership.
