Dementias, including Alzheimers disease 6. Mental health and mental disorders 7.

Targeted populations were the uninsured, underinsured and at-risk groups based on age, gender, ethnicity or socio-economic factors. All screenings were free of charge to the client. A logic chain model was used to plan events with our community partners and to evaluate the effectiveness of each event. Senior Leadership serves in many capacities within the larger community to improve the lives of those we serve. Not reported are the many hours spent as a volunteer manning the booths at the Annual Kentucky BBQ Festival to increase tourism in Danville/Boyle County.

A community focus group from the six counties was convened by PRC. The group included health department, governmental, first responders, educators and social agency leaders from each of the counties. Senior leadership reviews and approves both the community health assessment and the implementation plan to address the priority health risks for the population served and presents to the governing board for approval. They also allocate resources, both financially and personnel to address the implementation plan. Annually there is a budget approved by senior leadership and presented for governing board approval for community benefit. The senior leadership receives an annual update related to the work plan objectives and outcomes. The 2014 health risk assessment showed improvement trends related to cardiovascular risk in Boyle County from the 2008 assessment. The focused community benefit efforts began in Boyle County in FY 2008. The 2014 six county service area needs assessment shows improvement in the trend lines related to cardiovascular disease, but has not yet achieved a statically significant level of improvement from the initial six county survey in 2011. The Ephraim McDowell Health System provided $14,221,446 in financial assistance and means-tested programs within the two hospitals to improve the health of the community we serve in FY 2016.
