stablished in 1954, Carter County Health Center envisions healthy people living in an environment that is safe, supportive, and conducive to a healthy lifestyle. Though some of the programs have changed and expanded over the last 64 years, the goal of the staff and board is still to assist the residents of Carter County to live and prosper at their optimal level of health.
The Carter County Health Center is responsible for promoting and protecting the health of its citizens through community assessment, policy development and assurance to provide community readiness and response to disease episodes and outbreaks. The development also reaches beyond county lines to provide in-home care services to the aged and infirm as well as other programs in a multi-county effort to insure that all, in our area, may achieve their fullest health potential.
