Community Health Assessment Results

Every three years local public health agencies throughout North Carolina conduct a comprehensive Community Health Assessment. The assessment process is coordinated by the local health department, with support from the Healthy Carolinians partnership, as well as many local agencies, businesses and community members. The purpose of the community health assessment is to:

• Evaluate the health status of each county in relation to the State's health objectives as well as peer counties
• Identify and prioritize health issues that may pose a threat to the health of the community
• Develop strategies to address priority community health concerns

Community Health Improvement Plans

Following the completion of Community Health Assessments, local health departments are required to collaborate with community stakeholders to prepare Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIPs).  CHIPS are generated from and used to track the progress of priorities selected by stakeholders.  Health priorities are selected by stakeholders based on data collected during the Community Health Assessment.

Based on the 2022 Community  Health Assessment, mental health and substance use disorders were selected as the health priorities to be addressed.  The CHIPs were developed using the Results Based Accountability framework as a guide and in collaboration with community stakeholders.  To follow the progress made on these health priorities, the community may access Randolph County's Scorecard.

Strategic Plan

Every four years, local health departments across the state are involved in the North Carolina Local Health Department Accreditation Process. Part of the Accreditation process requires that each health department develop a Strategic Plan. A Strategic Plan is a disciplined process aimed at producing fundamental decisions and actions that will shape and guide what an organization is, what it does, and why it does what it does.
