COmmunity Health Services / Nursing Mission
Public Health Nurses and Health Educators work to protect and improve the health of people where they live, learn, work, and play. They provide education that promotes wellness and encourage healthy choices and behaviors. Public Health Nurses help residents gain access to care and assist with care coordination. Public Health knows that the foundation for a “healthy” community is “healthy” people.
