Health Equity and Community Health
Working to ensure everyone can reach their most remarkable health
Every human deserves the chance to be healthy. For many, good health can be hard to achieve or maintain due to a variety of social and economic factors.
At Novant Health, we recognize that these gaps exist, and we are actively working to close them. We are committed to helping every person — patients, team members and our communities at large — have access to the highest level of care for optimal wellness.

Dedicated to making healthcare accessible for everyone
At Novant Health, we recognize that any person may experience gaps in care because of decreased access and resources. These gaps can manifest as poorer health outcomes, reduced healthcare, and lower quality of care.
To identify patients experiencing gaps, Novant Health leverages comprehensive data analytics for our clinical interventions and community outreach initiatives. This approach is data-driven and evidence-based, ensuring that each of our facilities and clinics maintains high standards and individualizes care to meet the needs of all patients.
One key focus of our long-term strategy is enhancing maternal and infant health. Our aims include expanding access to high-quality prenatal and postpartum care, comprehensively addressing the social drivers of health, and fostering respectful, culturally sensitive care. Through these efforts, we will improve health outcomes and elevate the quality of life for all patients and their families.
