Moving forward, we will use this report to guide us in developing and implementing strategies and engaging partners to address the current needs identified in the 2013 process. We would like to thank each person,organization, and agency that has helped with this process. The health of a community starts with you. Best of health, J! Health Director President Albemarle Regional Health Services Vidant Chowan Hospital ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Community Health Assessment (CHA) process requires much work and dedication from those who are committed to identifying and solving health problems within our communities to improve the quality of life for our residents. The first phase of this process is forming a CHA Leadership Team. It is essential that the CHA Team involve people who have significant influence in the county, as well as the people who are most affected by health problems. People from throughout the county must be mobilized during this process, therefore a broad representation of county residents, agencies, and organizations were invited to be a part of this team.

This year has certainly been like no other and the response and actions from our businesses and citizens alike has been inspiring and revealing of the resilience of Pitt County and its people. While the year as Chairman may have been challenging due to the Pandemic, it still provided the opportunity to work alongside our members, regularly interacting with business of all sizes, non-profits, healthcare, education and local government. In a time of change and challenge, we saw our community rally around local businesses and non-profits more than ever before. Our local educators transitioned over night from teaching as they always have to the virtual classroom. Retailers, restaurants, fitness facilities and cultural venues quickly adapted to offer social media and online sales to continue their work and retain their talented workforce. Some businesses even pivoted to producing the Personal Protective Equipment that we all needed to remain safe. No matter the challenge we face, Pitt County and its people continue to pull together and persevere.

    2019 Annual Report Dear friends, It is our privilege to present the Vidant Health Foundation annual report for 2019, a year marked by great generosity and noteworthy milestones for our organization. Your gifts are providing HOPE for families, friends and colleagues, making our communities stronger and better places to live and work. And for this…we are extremely grateful. This year’s cover features Erica Thomas and her son Gray. In 2017, at the age of 29, she was diagnosed with T-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and her world would forever be changed. After two years of fighting this terrible disease, Erica has HOPE that she, one day, will be cancer free. Scott Senatore Thank you, Erica, for allowing us to tell your story and use your battle to inspire others. In the pages that follow, you will learn about what made 2019 such an amazing year — from celebrating 10 years of the East Carolina Heart Institute at Vidant Medical Center to seeing the difference just one year of cancer care provided at the Eddie and Jo Allison Smith Tower has made in the lives of cancer patients. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We are grateful that you chose to support Vidant Health and provide HOPE for all of eastern North Carolina.

    Sentara Albemarle Medical Center Community Health Needs Assessment 2019 Sentara Albemarle Medical Center Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) 2019 Table of Contents I. Introduction 2 II. Community Description and Demographics 4 III. Health Status Indicators 12 IV. Community Insight 22 V. Prior CHNA Year‐end Progress Report 42 VI. Appendix – About Health ENC and Conduent HCI 46 1 Introduction Sentara Albemarle Medical Center (SAMC) has conducted a community health needs assessment of the area that we serve. The assessment provides us with a picture of the health status of the residents in our communities and provides us with information about health and health‐related problems that impact health status. This assessment was carried out in partnership with Albemarle Regional Health Services (ARHS), Health ENC1, and Conduent Healthy Communities Institute in the area that we serve, including Camden, Currituck, Gates, Pasquotank, and Perquimans Counties. County level data and community findings for each county were provided by Conduent Healthy Communities Institute, with The Duke Endowment as the fiscal sponsor. During the assessment process, these data and findings were explored to better understand the unique sociodemographic and health issues relevant to each county. Our assessment includes a review of population characteristics such as age, educational level, and racial and ethnic composition because social factors are important determinants of health. The assessment also looks at risk factors like obesity and smoking and at health indicators such as infant mortality and cancer incidence rates. Community input is important so the assessment also includes survey results from a community survey, as well as findings from focus groups with community members on health issues and barriers to achieving good health.
