Health Promotion/Education

 Health Promotion Activities

 

The Health Promotion Team works within the community to assist local organizations with policy development and implementation, environmental changes such as walking trails, worksite wellness programs, joint use agreements and coalition building related to health priorities.  Our work is focused on health priorities that have been identified by the county’s most recent community health assessment. 

 

The Health Promotion team, with the assistance of multiple community partners including Caldwell Memorial Hospital, lead efforts in conducing the Community Health Assessment every three years as a way to identify the needs of the community.  Community members are asked to provide input into the selection of the county’s health needs and come together to identify interventions that target those needs.  

In 2017, Caldwell County selected the following priorities:

  • Preventative Care
  • Substance Abuse
  • Mental Health
