CareSouth Carolina to host Community Health Fair in Bishopville

BISHOPVILLE — CareSouth Carolina will hold a Community Health Fair from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Saturday, April 27, at the Bishopville High Memorial Gym, 121 E. College St.
The aim of the event is to connect communities with a range of healthcare resources and support.
The event will offer an array of giveaways, food, health resources, family support services, health and wellness guidance, and essential health screenings.
“Our Community Health Fair evolved from our community-focused engagements across all five counties,” CareSouth Carolina Chief of Community Health Joe Bittle said in a news release. “While the community was aware that we offered healthcare, they did not know the diverse range of resources we offer, such as community health workers and navigators.”
In addition to primary care, CareSouth Carolina offers a comprehensive set of services, including internal medicine, pediatrics, women’s services, OB/GYN, HIV/AIDS primary care, infectious disease primary care, IV therapy, substance abuse prevention, dental, chiropractic services, pharmacy, senior support services, family support services, clinical counseling, laboratory, ultrasound, X-Ray, agricultural worker health services, and much more.
“Our commitment goes beyond medical care,” Bittle said. “We conduct Community Needs Assessments to identify and address specific needs, providing assistance in navigation and various other aspects. We offer a complete set of services designed to help individuals meet their needs.”
