Franklin County also comprises the Chambersburg–Waynesboro, PA Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is also included in the Washington–Baltimore–Arlington, DC-MD-VA-WV-PA, Combined Statistical Area. The area lies to a large extent within the Cumberland Valley. Hagerstown is located just south of Franklin County, PA and is the county seat of Washington County, Maryland.

HealthHealth
Having good health overall is a major key to a long and healthy life. Finding ways to take care of your health can aid in recovery and help you feel better daily. Get routine check-ups and visit your doctor when you're not feeling well. Sometimes, it is hard to tell whether not feeling well is due to a side-effect of medicine, a symptom of a health disorder or any other different health problem. Talk to your doctor or other health care specialist for any other questions or information.
Excellent health care…Close to home.
