Impacts of Hurricane Helene felt across the country.

The impacts of Hurricane Helene are being felt across the country, including Northwest Ohio. Local medical facilities are now being more selective and cautious with their medical supplies. This comes after one of the largest suppliers of IV fluids was recently flooded in North Carolina. In a statement sent to news outlets from the Ohio Department of Health said in part they’re “working with partners at the regional, state, and national level. Within the state, we are coordinating closely with regional hospital liaisons, regional healthcare coordinators, the Ohio Hospital Association, and the Ohio Pharmacy Services Center.
