“Laurel Health has served the community for over 50 years, building trusted relationships with generations of families. We love living rurally, but we want to make sure that all our friends and neighbors have the same access to quality care that they would in a more populated area,” shares Anne Loudenslager, President of Laurel Health. “Too often, the geographic distances in rural communities mean patients delay or skip care, allowing small, treatable issues to snowball into more serious health problems. We try to locate our centers in towns and places where people live, work, and play to make accessing healthcare easier. Community health centers meet patients where they are, offering care, compassion, and support when and where it’s needed the most.”
Laurel Health’s program will be distributed to public television stations nationwide in all 50 states over the next year, and a 30-second commercial spot is running on news networks such as CNN, HLN, MSNOW, and CNBC to promote the organization.
Viewers can watch Laurel Health’s full feature online right now. For a sneak peek of the public television segment with an introduction by Andy Garcia, viewers can visit All Access with Andy Garcia. An extended version of the documentary is also available to watch at laurelhc.org.
