    Health Education is the Focus, Kentucky Folk Art is the Treat

    For most people, health care can be confusing and complex, especially during times of crisis. That's why the new Don and Cathy Jacobs Health Education Center is essential in the hospital. Its prime location on the mezzanine level just off the bridge linking the hospital to the parking garage will make it easy for visitors to stop by and research their medical questions.

    The Health Education Center will also serve as a gallery for a Kentucky folk art collection curated by the Kentucky Folk Art Center. This collection will capture the richness of Kentucky's cultural heritage.
