WHEELING — It has been almost two months since the ribbon was cut to officially declare the medical clinic at Madison Elementary School ready for patient use, but so far it has not been opened for business.

The clinic is a joint venture between Ohio County Schools and WVU Medicine Wheeling Hospital, which will be operating the facility.

Superintendent Kim Miller said the delay is due to “paperwork,” as the two entities continue to clarify communication between all parties involved.

The matter is set to come before the Ohio County Board of Education when it next meets at 6 p.m. on Oct. 27 at the board office.

“We’re just wanting to make sure Wheeling Hospital and Ohio County Schools are on the same page with what forms need to be filled out,” she explained.
