About bollinger county health center
|
Since June 1959, Bollinger County Health Center has provided public health services to the residents of Bollinger County. By partnering with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and other agencies, additional funds are contracted to expand the scope of services offered. Through this local tax supported agency, the quality of life for our communities has vastly been changed.
The increased life expectancy of Americans has been due largely to public health interventions. Bollinger County Health Center has utilized many of these interventions in the past forty+ years, continues many of them today, and constantly assesses the community's needs to determine new and effective measures to "make life better" for residents and visitors to our county. In 2017, the Bollinger County Health Center was re-accredited through the Missouri Institute for Community Health. Accreditation is the gold standard for public health centers and signifies that Bollinger County Health Center is achieving its mission. |
