LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – A government program to improve rural health care has benefited a clinic in Arkansas.

The United States Department of Agriculture announced Wednesday a series of grants nationwide to benefit rural health care. One of the grant recipients is Dermott’s Mainline Health Systems, Inc. which received $85,000 for a backup generator and floor replacement.

The USDA grant award shows that the clinic needed the generator to maintain the temperature of COVID-19 vaccines during power outages.
