The Board of Directors of the Onslow Memorial Hospital (OMH) Foundation is pleased to announce a $10,000 grant awarded to the Onslow Memorial Rehabilitation Center. This funding is dedicated to acquiring a state-of-the-art traction table, which will significantly enhance the Center’s capacity to treat patients in Jacksonville.
