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.

  • Exemplars of Community Health Needs Assessment Collaboration
    EXEMPLARS OF COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT COLLABORATION CONTEXT The quantity and quality of collaborations between hospitals and local public health agencies across the nation have been encouraged or facilitated by two developments. First, the Internal Revenue Code 501(r)(3) requires non-profit hospitals to conduct a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) every 3 years and to adopt an implementation strategy to meet the community needs identified (IRS, 2014). Second, local health departments (LHDs) have the incentive to collaborate with hospitals when seeking accreditation from the Public Health Accreditation Board, a process that requires the completion of a community health assessment (PHAB, 2014). The collaboration between local public health agencies and hospitals has the potential to materialize into a focus on population health improvement, better coordination of care, and cost savings. The quality and extent of CHNA-related collaboration between these entities range from communication to integrated action. On the hospital side, factors that have been found to influence collaboration include (1) delivery system reform participation (e.g., in an accountable care organization), (2) state requirements, and (3) the status of the social determinants of health in the communities where the hospitals are located (Cramer et al., 2017). On the LHD side, characteristics that influence collaboration are LHD size, governance structures (e.g., local board of health), and expenditures (Beatty et al., 2015). In recognition of the investments and efforts that both local public health agencies and hospitals must make to collaborate, the Action Collaborative on Bridging Health, Health Care, and Community sought to surface some CHNA-related collaboration examples through a call for abstracts.

The SUMMER Volunteen Program is for students ages 15-18 (applicant must be 15 by JUNE 1 and complete 9th grade by June 15th). Due to the large number of students interested in this program, it is essential that you pay close attention to the information given and that you are aware of the deadline by which this information must be returned to Volunteer Services.

Our SUMMER VolunTEEN program runs from 4 weeks (usually during the month of July) each year.

(There will be no exceptions.) Each SUMMER VolunTEEN is required to volunteer at least 8 hours (two 4-hour shifts) per week (preferably both on the same day if scheduling permits) as is determined to be both productive and convenient for you and the unit manager.
