Community Outreach Programs

Auburn Community Hospital continues its tradition of providing superior healthcare to the residents of Auburn and the surrounding region with resources to help meet the ongoing needs for community health education and awareness. Throughout the years this commitment has grown to include highly regarded wellness programs and services that are available to all members of our community at little or no cost. These programs provide the residents with first-hand knowledge that can improve their understanding about healthcare in general and about matters that can improve a specific condition.

Our Team

The outreach programs provided are conducted by members of our medical and support staff on a volunteer basis. These committed individuals understand the need for ongoing and accessible healthcare education and have helped to develop programs that are informative, interesting and focused on healthcare issues affecting our community. They all take personal satisfaction in helping others learn more about medical care and to better understand how to improve their personal health status.
