Cherokee, alongside members of the Charles M. Hall Alumni Association and city leaders, gathered yesterday to honor the legacy of Charles M. Hall School in Alcoa. The historical marker that now stands outside of CHS' Alcoa Health Center is forever dedicated to those who were a part of the building’s school history from 1926-1968. With the complete integration into City of Alcoa schools in 1968, the history of Charles M. Hall as an all-Black school came to an end, but its rich heritage and tradition of service to the community will continue to live for years to come.

Mission: to enhance the health and well-being of our community by providing high-quality, integrated healthcare for all.
关于我们
Cherokee Health Systems (CHS) is a Federally Qualified Health Center that provides primary care, behavioral health, dental services, addiction services, optometry services, and more to people across Tennessee. We also provide telehealth and on-site services to students in more than 35 area schools. At CHS, no one is ever denied treatment based on an inability to pay. We have a national reputation as a pioneer and leader in integrated care -- an approach in which we embed behavioral health providers alongside primary care physicians to provide the full range of patient care. The mission of CHS is to enhance the health and well-being of our community by providing high-quality, integrated, comprehensive, equitable, and person-centered healthcare for all. CHS receives funding from the federal government and the Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (TDMHSAS). The United States Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Tennessee Code Annotated (T.C.A.) 4-21-904 ensure your right to receive equal treatment and service opportunities regardless of your race, color, national origin, or English proficiency. No person receiving services at Cherokee Health Systems shall be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, or English proficiency.

It takes a village…. ?? And we truly could not be more grateful for ours. The outpouring of donations we received this week from our village of partners will help support the health of our patients and community members in East Tennessee as they recover from Hurricane Helene. We’re very humbled to provide hygiene kits, diapers, wipes, formula, cleaning supplies, medicine, masks, safety glasses, and snacks to individuals and families we come into contact with. THANK YOU to Direct Relief, Heart to Heart International, CVS Health, Americares, Baby2Baby, and International Medical Corps for helping us strengthen our cherished community. #hurricane #healthcare #health #motherhood #Tennessee #teamwork

At CHS, we are committed to caring for all the communities we serve. While one CHS team of first responders are offering healthcare, aid, and supplies in Cocke and Sevier counties, another group of CHS staff are participating in a Health Festival in the Burlington community of East Knoxville. Urgent response. Chronic condition management. Health education. Partnership with an authentic spirit and smiles. This is who we are and what we do. This is our purpose and privilege in serving a mission greater than ourselves. Thank you CHS Team. You are the BEST.

Health center leaders describe staff members showing up for work immediately after #HurricaneHelene had passed — even though staff are overwhelmingly locals themselves, and flooded houses, missing or sick relatives, and food shortages were affecting them as well. Support for community health centers is key to Direct Relief’s Hurricane Helene response. Long before tropical storm season, Direct Relief works with health center partners in vulnerable areas to stage caches of emergency medicines and supplies, and funds the purchase and outfitting of mobile medical units like Cherokee Health System’s, which provide lifesaving care in the aftermath of disasters. Direct Relief is providing $25,000 emergency grants to 10 health centers responding to Hurricane Helene, including Appalachian Mountain Community Health Centers. In response to requests, Direct Relief has shipped emergency medications, water purification tablets, first aid supplies, emergency medical packs, hygiene kits, tetanus and hepatitis vaccines, and other essential resources to local organizations responding to Helene. https://lnkd.in/e9q8S6_h
