Anson County
in North Carolina
Healthcare Facilities
Anson County, located in the southern part of North Carolina, offers a variety of healthcare and medical facilities to cater to its community's health and wellness needs. However, it might not boast the vast healthcare networks in the state's urban centers.
The primary healthcare facility in Anson County is the Atrium Health Anson, formerly known as Anson Community Hospital, located in Wadesboro. A part of the Atrium Health system, this critical access hospital provides emergency care, acute inpatient care, outpatient surgery, and diagnostic services. Atrium Health Anson also provides specialized cardiology, urology, and orthopedics care through visiting specialists.
The hospital works with other medical practices and clinics in the area, such as the Anson Primary Care and the Anson Children's Center, also part of Atrium Health. These facilities offer essential services such as preventative care, chronic disease management, and wellness checks, providing a comprehensive primary care network for the residents of Anson County.
Another crucial part of the healthcare landscape in Anson County is the Anson County Health Department. This public health department offers numerous services to improve the community's overall health. Their services include immunizations, family planning, prenatal care, communicable disease control, and various health education programs. It also provides much-needed services for underinsured and uninsured populations.
For senior residents of Anson County, there are facilities such as Meadowview Terrace of Wadesboro and Anson Health and Rehabilitation, which offer long-term care, rehabilitation services, and a comfortable living environment. These facilities provide essential healthcare services to the county's aging population.
Community-based services are also available for those with mental health needs, developmental disabilities, and substance use disorders. Sandhills Center is a publicly-funded Local Management Entity/Managed Care Organization (LME/MCO) that manages and ensures appropriate services for individuals in Anson County and surrounding counties.
Pharmacy services in Anson County are also crucial to the local healthcare infrastructure. Local pharmacies, like The Medicine Shoppe Pharmacy and Walmart Pharmacy in Wadesboro, not only provide prescription services but often also offer health consultations and preventive health services such as immunizations.
Despite its rural setting, Anson County can offer its residents a robust array of medical and healthcare facilities. Its network of hospitals, primary care clinics, specialty clinics, public health departments, and pharmacies works together to ensure that residents can access the care they need.
Like many rural communities, Anson County faces challenges regarding healthcare accessibility and health outcomes. Geographic isolation, a lack of transportation, and higher rates of uninsured individuals can make it difficult for some residents to access the care they need. However, Anson County's healthcare facilities continue to work towards addressing these issues, providing essential medical services and striving to improve the health and well-being of all community members.
