Adagio Health Care has expanded its services by partnering with Clay Battelle Health Services and Cornerstone Care Community Health Services.

Those West Virginia counties getting increased access will be Brooke, Ohio, Hancock, Marshall, Wetzel, Monongalia and Preston.

Officials said it's a safe place to turn, even for people without insurance and it offers a wide range of services

"Gynecological care, birth control, family planning, breast and cervical cancer screening, identification and treatment of common sexually transmitted illnesses both to women and men," explained B.J. Leber, President and CEO of Adagio Health. "We really work hard to make sure that the atmosphere is confidential if you need it, non-judgmental, warm, caring, comfortable."
