Kids Health Fair

Van Wert County Hospital again hosted its eighth annual Kids Health Fair on Friday. The health fair consists of multiple stations that provide information on health and safety issues. Presenters on Friday included several hospital departments, Van Wert Fire Department, Brickner Ambulance Service and the county enhanced 9-1-1 emergency telephone service.
