A different health topic will be presented each month, providing a learning environment with open discussion and welcomed questions. Physicians, clinicians, and practitioners from Coshocton Regional Medical Center, Genesis Healthcare of Coshocton, Private Practices, and even retired physicians who still reside in the county have been invited to participate.

The event topic for August is sleep health and will take place on Monday, Aug. 19 from 5-6 p.m. at Rust Décor, located at 341 Main St. in Coshocton.

Dr. Rich graduated from Brigham Young University in Provo Utah with a degree in human biology. He then attended the Ohio State College of Medicine for medical school and completed his residency in otolaryngology – head and neck surgery at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland and Washington DC. He served as an active-duty officer in the Army for 11 years, spending six years total stationed at army hospitals in Seoul South Korea and Landstuhl Germany. He then transferred to the Army Reserves and moved back to Ohio where he joined the Genesis ENT group six years ago. In his free time, he enjoys exercising with his kids, taking care of his beehives, making sourdough bread, smoking all manner of delicious meats, and going back the Rocky Mountains to ski.

It is the mission at Coshocton Public Health to ensure equitable access to care, prevent diseases, promote healthy behaviors and protect the well-being and health environment for all community members. By offering this event each month, staff are gaining insight to what is truly needed by the adult population in Coshocton County.
