Sister Mary Meyers, Director of Academic Support and NCLEX Success at Duquesne University School of Nursing, recently was honored as the 2025 Medical Provider of the Year at Ohio Valley Health Center’s annual gala.
She was recognized as “an integral part of helping the OVHC provide hope and healing to countless patients in underserved areas through her dedicated efforts and willingness to serve others.”
Sister Mary, who has a Doctorate in Nursing Practice, has volunteered weekly for the past five years at the health center in Steubenville, which provides high-quality health care to uninsured and underinsured individuals in the Ohio Valley, regardless of their ability to pay.
Describing her volunteer work as “the purest form of medical care,” Sr. Mary says she felt called to minister at the clinic where she also mentors nursing students, many of whom have been inspired to return and serve alongside her.
