89% of health happens outside of the doctor’s office.
That’s why we are passionate about working to ensure that all people have the opportunity to live their healthiest lives throughout Jackson County.
Not only do we provide essential clinical services (such as vaccinations) at a low cost, we work upstream on policies, environmental conditions, and community factors that all play a role in health.
We use a multi-prong approach to improve our community’s health, which includes health promotions, communicable disease prevention, public health emergency preparedness, clinical services, operations, and quality improvement.
We truly believe we can help improve the health of all people, and we’re passionate about achieving those results.
Everything we do is for the individuals of Jackson County, and our goal is to see all people living their healthiest lives.
