[March 04, 2022]  Lincoln Memorial Hospital has completed its community health needs assessment and listed its three priorities online for the public to view.

The nonprofit hospital will develop an implementation plan to address these priorities in fiscal year 2022 through 2024. They are youth mental health, obesity and substance use.

Mental health was also singled out as a priority for all five hospitals in Memorial Health.

To complete the assessment, Lincoln Memorial Hospital collaborated with the Logan County Department of Public Health and other health and social service providers that represent vulnerable members of the community.

“Many issues determine the health of a community. No single hospital, agency or governmental body can be entirely responsible for the community’s health,” said Dolan Dalpoas, president and CEO of Lincoln Memorial Hospital. “We look forward to working with our community partners to address these critical health needs faced by many.”

Completing a community health needs assessment is required of nonprofit hospitals every three years as part of the Affordable Care Act of 2010.
