On January 26, 2023, Wyandot County Public Health's Director of Environmental Health Jeff Ritchey was recognized with the 2023 Spotlight Award by the Wyandot Chamber of Commerce. The following was written about Jeff in the event program:

"Jeff has been the Director of Environmental Health for Wyandot County Public Health since February of 1996. He has been fortunate enough to work with a lot of businesses in the county, and the public, over the years. This includes restaurants, campgrounds, realtors, excavators, plumbers, and the list goes on. While doing this job, Jeff has come to realize that providing good customer service means being available to those that need you, and treating every individual the same. Being consistent, fair, and trying not to be that one thing the customer is waiting on, is also key to keeping people happy, Jeff says. He considers himself blessed to be surrounded by such great team members at the health department, and privileged to work with the community and local partners to make Wyandot County a great place to call home."

Congratulations Jeff on this well-deserved recognition. Wyandot County Public Health is proud to have you on its team.
