GREENFIELD – Adair County Health System (ACHS) honored seven couples Thursday, Feb. 12, for Heart Health Month.
ACHS staff were asked to nominate Adair County couples who had been married for a “few” years to honor them. A person’s physical health is impacted by their social, emotional and mental health. Honoring these couple gave the staff at ACHS an opportunity to learn from the couples.

Linda Kerns, assistant health coach; Trista Grossnickle, cardiac rehab coordinator; Cris Queck, dietary; and Tiffany Johnson, marketing director, served the meal and coordinated the event.
