PART V, SECTION B, LINE 11: NORTHEAST GEORGIA MEDICAL CENTER DEFINED FOUR COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THEIR FOUR HOSPITAL FACILITIES: NGMC GREATER BRASELTON SERVICE AREA (GBSA), NGMC PRIMARY SERVICE AREA (PSA), NGMC SECONDARY SERVICE AREA 400 (SSA 400), AND NGMC SECONDARY SERVICE AREA NORTH (SSA NORTH). BASED ON RESULTS OF THE 2022 CHNA, THE FOLLOWING THREE PRIORITIES WERE ADOPTED BY THE ORGANIZATION AND REPRESENT THOSE ON WHICH WE CAN HAVE THE MOST IMPACT BASED ON PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA: -BEHAVIORAL AND MENTAL HEALTH (ALL NGMC SERVICE AREAS) -ACCESS TO CARE (ALL NGMC SERVICE AREAS) -HEALTHY BEHAVIORS (ALL NGMC SERVICE AREAS)FOR DETAILS ON HOW NGMC IS ADDRESSING THE SIGNIFICANT NEEDS IDENTIFIED IN ITS MOST RECENTLY CONDUCTED CHNA, GO TO: HTTPS://WWW.NGHS.COM/COMMUNITY-BENEFIT-RESOURCES, GO TO INITIATIVES AND ACTIVITIES, AND CLICK ON 2023 2025 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN.THE HEALTH NEEDS THE SYSTEM CHOSE NOT TO ADDRESS THROUGH THE PRIORITIZATION PROCESS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING, BROKEN DOWN BY SERVICE AREA: -NGMC PSA: FOOD ACCESS AND NUTRITION, MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH, SOCIAL ISOLATION. -NGMC GBSA: MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, INJURY AND DEATH, VIOLENCE, CHILD ABUSE, INCOME, EDUCATION, ACCESS TO DENTAL CARE, CANCER, TRANSPORTATION. -NGMC SSA NORTH: MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE, INCOME, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, VIOLENCE, CHILD ABUSE, EDUCATION, ACCESS TO DENTAL CARE, EMPLOYMENT, CEREBROVASCULAR DISEASE, SOCIAL ISOLATION, CANCER, COPD AND RESPIRATORY DISEASE, INJURY, AND DEATH. -NGMC SSA 400: MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH, SMOKING, VIOLENCE/CHILD ABUSE, INCOME, ACCESS TO DENTAL CARE, SOCIAL ISOLATION, CANCER, TRANSPORTATION.EVEN SO, NGMC DOES ACTIVELY WORK ON THESE ISSUES. FOR INSTANCE, ACCESS TO CARE IS A PRIORITY ACROSS THE REGION AND WHILE TRANSPORTATION WAS NOT SINGLED OUT AS A PRIORITY, WE CONSIDER TRANSPORTATION TO BE A KEY COMPONENT TO ACCESSING CARE. WHILE TRANSPORTATION ON ITS OWN DID NOT MAKE THE HEALTH PRIORITY LIST, IT WOULD BE AN ISSUE CONSIDERED IN ACCESS TO CARE ISSUES. WHILE CANCER WAS NOT CHOSEN AS A COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT PRIORITY, NGMC ALREADY HAS AN INTERNAL EMPHASIS ON THIS HEALTH ISSUE AND WILL REPORT ITS ACTIVITY VIA THE ANNUAL COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT.
