The Hopkins County Health Department is a non-profit, public service agency governed by the Hopkins County Board of Health. Local tax revenues, state, and federal grants through the Cabinet for Health and Family Services, and other direct grants provide funding for the health department. Revenue is received from Medicaid, private insurance, private pay patients, and donations.
The Hopkins County Health Department is the public agency charged with performing the statutory obligations of public health services and addressing community health needs. We prevent disease, promote wellness, and protect against health threats daily through various processes. This work is accomplished due to the foundational support and leadership of the Hopkins County Board of Health. The Hopkins County Board of Health is made up of persons who voluntarily represent our community according to their expertise.
A Community Health Assessment (CHA) is a process by which community members gain an understanding of the health, concerns, and health care systems of the community. The process helps reveal health disparities and gaps in services among different populations (e.g., low-income, minority, or geographically isolated groups), allowing for targeted interventions that promote an equitable approach to health improvement. It is the foundation for improving the health of our community.
