We and our friends at Youngstown State University, are excited to share that Wick Primary Care will open in 2019! The new primary care facility, located in the heart of Youngstown State University’s campus, will provide increased and convenient access to care for YSU students and faculty, including behavioral health services and integrated care through Mercy Health’s MyChart. We are proud to partner with the University in the delivery of high-quality, compassionate care throughout the Mahoning Valley. #mercyhealth #ysugram

Warm your neighbors' hearts with an act of kindness, such as collecting their trash bins from the curb, or shoveling their driveway if it's snowing. #MomentsOfMercy like these show compassion and generosity at a time when some people need it most.

Spread joy, not germs! Be sure to wash your hands regularly, cover your cough with your elbow instead of your hands, and avoid crowds if you’re contagious to help keep everyone healthy and happy this holiday season. #SpreadJoyNotGerms #HealthyHolidays

The holidays are here, and we enjoyed celebrating our annual 2018 Mercy Health - St. Rita's Holiday Street Fair with our Lima community. Santa Claus and his reindeer made a special appearance, and visited with children and their families. Families also enjoyed a day of fun, music, food, crafts and prizes, as well as the annual tree lighting.
Sponsored by Mercy Health - St. Rita’s Volunteer/Auxiliary, the #Holiday Street Fair is a holiday tradition to those in our community. Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the season!

The holiday season is the perfect opportunity to reconnect with old friends. Whether you meet for a cup of coffee or catch up with a phone call, rekindling your valued friendship will leave you both feeling merry and bright. #MomentsOfMercy

As winter approaches, the risk for carbon monoxide poisoning increases. 🚨🚨🚨Inhaling too much of the dangerous gas blocks oxygen from the bloodstream and causes headaches, nausea and vomiting.
The best way to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning is to install a CO detector on every floor and change the batteries every six months. Never leave your car running in the garage and only use generators, grills and other gasoline-powered devices outside.
