Executive Summary Carilion Clinic and Tazewell County CCRT partnered to conduct the 2018 TCCHA. Together with partners, we are committed to the essential work of improving and maintaining the health of our communities. It is important to assess the health concerns of each community periodically to ensure that current needs are being addressed. A Community Health Assessment (CHA) every three years will uncover issues, indicate where improvement goals are needed, and track and promote progress in key areas, so that there is demonstrated, ongoing improvement. The work of conducting this CHA and the public availability of its findings is intended to enable the community to effectively plan the vital work of maintaining and improving health. The finding of the 2018 TCCHA revealed 10 priority health-related issues in the community, identified by the CHAT after review of the data collected. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Description of the Community Defining the Community Served Tazewell County is nestled among the Appalachian Mountains in southwest Virginia and borders West Virginia to its north. Tazewell County has a land area of 518.85 square miles and about 86.9 persons per square mile1. Historically, what is now Tazewell County was a hunting ground for Native American tribes. The area’s abundance of wild game was a source of frequent skirmishes among these tribes. Tazewell County was chartered on December 19, 1799 and included five towns: Bluefield, Richlands, Tazewell, Cedar Bluff, and Pocahontas. The land for the county came from portions of the bordering Wythe and Russell counties2. Today, Tazewell County is home to an outstanding array of hiking, biking and ATV trails, scenic drives, including “Back of the Dragon,” outdoor parks, including Cavitt’s Creek Park, and venues for experiencing culture, art and history3.
Community Demographics The 2018 TCCHA revealed significant disparities both in health and in social determinants compared to the Commonwealth of Virginia. The 2012-2016 American Community Survey (ACS) found the total population of the counties of Tazewell County to be 43,3674. For Tazewell County, the ACS predicts very small positive future population change at 0.2% compared to the Commonwealth of Virginia at 9.2% by 2040. Median age is 43.7 in Tazewell County compared to 37.8 in Virginia5. The ACS finds that a larger percentage of the population is White in Tazewell County than in the Commonwealth of Virginia as a whole. In Tazewell County, 94.7% of the population is White and 3% of the population is Black6. All of Tazewell County is a designated Medically Underserved Area (MUA)7.

Service Area The service areas for Carilion Clinic’s Community Health Assessments are determined by at least 70% of unique patient origin of the hospital in each respective market. There is a focus placed on areas that are considered MUAs and Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs). Carilion Tazewell Community Hospital is located in Tazewell County, Virginia. In fiscal year 2017, CTCH served 5,592 unique patients. Patient origin data revealed that during this year, 82.89% of patients served by CTCH lived in Tazewell County.
8
Existing Resources Tazewell County is located in southwest Virginia and has a dedicated system of health and human service resources, as well and venues for exploring arts and culture and outdoor amenities. Health and human service organizations work to reduce the disparities in access to care and access to resources that still exist for many residents of the region. Please see Appendix 7 for a list of community resources serving Tazewell County.
Carilion Tazewell Community Hospital Carilion Tazewell Community Hospital (CTCH) is located in the beautiful mountains of southwest Virginia and primarily serves Tazewell County and the southern West Virginia counties of Mercer and McDowell. CTCH has private rooms and is equipped to treat patients needing medical care. They also support an extended care recovery program (Swing Bed) that gives eligible patients an opportunity to grow stronger before going home. CTCH hosts diagnostic services such as imaging, including screening mammography; and therapy services including physical therapy and respiratory therapy. CTCH offers 24/7 emergency services and can arrange access to higher levels of care if needed. Carilion Clinic Family Medicine and the Tazewell Veteran’s Outpatient Clinic offer primary care on site at entrance 2. CTCH officially became part of Carilion Clinic in 2008, but has been under Carilion's management since 1981. CTCH is dedicated to community, history, and family, as exemplified through memorials and tributes throughout the hospital. CTCH is part of Carilion Clinic, a not-for-profit health care organization based in Roanoke, Virginia. It is mission-driven, focusing everyday on improving the health of the communities we serve. Through a comprehensive network of hospitals, primary and specialty physician practices, wellness centers, and other complementary services, quality care is provided close to home for nearly 1 million Virginians. With an enduring commitment to the health of our region, we also seek to advance care through medical education and research, helping our community stay healthy and inspire our region to grow stronger.

Community Health Assessment Process Method Carilion Clinic and Tazewell County CCRT partnered to conduct the 2018 TCCHA. A 16-member Community Health Assessment Team (CHAT) oversaw the planning activities. The service area included those living in Tazewell County. We strive to target the underserved/vulnerable populations disproportionately impacted by the social determinants of health, including poverty, race/ethnicity, education, and/or lack of insurance. Beginning in October 2017, primary data collection included a Community Health Survey, focus groups with key stakeholders and providers and focus groups with target populations. Secondary data collected include demographic and socioeconomic indicators as well as health indicators addressing access to care, health status, prevention, wellness, risky behaviors and the social environment. Collaboration In Tazewell County, CCRT has served as a convening partnership of health and human service organizations, the legal system and law enforcement, focused on domestic violence. CTCH has partnered with CCRT to conduct the 2018 Community Health Assessments and respond to identified community health priorities. CTCH participates regularly on CCRT and recruited CHAT members through CCRT for the 2018 TCCHA. CTCH and CCRT leadership partnered in the planning and execution of the 2018 TCCHA and will continue to partner and convene others to participate in strategies to address identified needs. Community Health Improvement Process Carilion Clinic’s Community Health Improvement Process was adapted from Associates in Process Improvement’s the Model for Improvement and the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle developed by Walter Shewhart8. It consists of five distinct steps: (1) conducting the CHA, (2) strategic planning, (3) creating the implementation strategy, (4) program implementation, and (5) evaluation. This cycle is repeated every three years to comply with IRS requirements. Each step in the process is explained below. Step 1: Conduct Community Health Assessment The first step in the Community Health Improvement Process is to conduct a Community Health Assessment. Led by a Community Health Assessment Team (CHAT), the assessment involves collection of primary and secondary data from numerous sources. Primary data include responses from a community health survey, open to all residents of the assessment area, as well as focus groups conducted with stakeholders and with target populations. The target populations are defined as underserved/vulnerable populations disproportionately impacted by the social determinants of health, including poverty, race/ethnicity, education, and/or lack of insurance.

Step 2: Strategic Planning After the completion of the CHA, the CHAT enters the strategic planning phase of the process. First, the CHAT must decide what community health needs to focus on and provide explanation as to what issues will be the focus and why. To help with this determination, the CHAT participates in an activity charting the top priorities on an axis, based on the feasibility and potential impact of solutions that could be implemented locally to address these issues. After the priority areas (needs) have been identified, the team participates in a strategic planning session. Break-out session format is used for the planning session. CHAT members spend the strategic planning session developing a framework of goals and strategies to use as a starting point for potential future community work. They discuss existing community partnerships that could potentially lead this work, including the Tazewell County CCRT. In the future, groups will identify alignment opportunities between organizations and system changes that are likely to lead to improvement and select new or existing strategies for the community that are most likely to succeed in addressing the needs. Step 3: Implementation Strategy After the CHA is completed, Carilion Clinic develops a written Implementation Strategy that specifies what health needs were identified in the CHA, what needs the organizations plans to address and what needs the organizations does not plan to address and reasons for each. Included in the document are expected outcomes for each community issue being addressed and proposed evidence-based interventions with goals and objectives that will be tracked over time (both process and outcome measures). The document must be formally approved by the organization’s Board of Directors and filed on the organizations 990 tax return. Carilion Clinic will integrate the implementation strategy with existing organizational and community plans. Step 4: Program Implementation Carilion Clinic Community Health & Outreach and the CHAT will establish and monitor new and ongoing community health programs implemented to respond to the community health needs identified in the CHA. New programs will be piloted on a small scale first and will be continually assessed and improved using the PDSA cycle9. The goal of the PDSA cycle is to make small, sustained improvements over time. Relevant data are collected and analyzed for each program. After successful implementation of the pilot, the program can be implemented on a larger scale throughout Carilion Clinic or with other organizations in the community. The PDSA cycle is ongoing for existing community health improvement programs. Step 5: Evaluation Community health programs and metrics associated with the expected outcome in the implementation strategy will be monitored by Carilion Clinic Community Health and Outreach.

Progress will be reported to CTCH’s Board of Directors from time to time, which may include periodic updates in the Administrator’s Report throughout the year, for each community health need identified in the last CHA cycle. In addition, the Board will be informed of community grant awards given by the hospital to fund health safety net programs in the community. Decisions on funding of health safety net programs will be based on available resources and the impact on addressing a documented community health need identified in the CHA. For more information, see https://www.carilionclinic.org/communityhealth-outreach. Finally, Carilion Clinic will update progress made on each community health need identified in the most resent CHA cycle annually on the organization’s 990 tax form.
Data Collection The CHAT leads the assessment and oversees primary and secondary data collection. Beginning in October 2017, primary data collection included a Community Health Survey, focus groups with key stakeholders and providers, and focus groups with target populations. Secondary data were collected, including demographic and socioeconomic indicators, as well as health indicators addressing access to care, health status, prevention, wellness, risky behaviors and the social environment. Community Health Survey (CHS): The CHS consists of 38 questions for adults, age 18 and older, about access and barriers to healthcare, general health questions, and demographic information. The survey mirrors Healthy People 2020 goals, as well as many other national health surveys that do not collect health care data at the zip code level. This survey is not a scientific survey and the survey method uses oversampling techniques of the target population (please see Appendix 4 for Carilion Tazewell Community Hospital’s CHS). Efforts are made to keep as many questions consistent from the previous CHS for result trending purposes. An incentive for completing the CHS was provided to encourage participation. Focus Groups: Focus groups are conducted with many groups of individuals in an effort to best understand health in Tazewell County. The goal of the focus groups is to identify barriers to care and gaps in services for primary care, dental and mental health/substance use services for the population. An effort was made to meet with groups representing each lifecycle (parents and women of child-bearing age, adults, and the elderly) living in MUAs. We strive to target our assessment of health care and barriers for those underserved and vulnerable populations disproportionately impacted by the social determinants of health. Information provided by focus groups was analyzed to understand themes of group responses. For each group, there were no more than 15 participants. A facilitator and scribe conducted each focus group meeting and the audio of the meetings were recorded and later transcribed to be analyzed. In order to contribute, participants signed consent forms prior to each meeting agreeing on the format of the meeting, how information would be used and to ensure confidentiality. The groups were held in convenient, neutral locations and/or in sites where participants already congregate. Snacks and beverages were provided. 12
The script for the focus groups is simple and consists of six open-ended questions, as detailed below: 1. In one or two words, how would you describe good health? 2. Looking at this list, what things do you need to have good health like what we’ve described? Do you have these things? 3. What do you, or your family and friends, do when you need a check-up or are sick? 4. What do you, or your family and friends, do when you have a toothache or need your teeth cleaned? 5. What do you, or your family and friends, do when you need to talk to someone about your nerves/stress/depression or need help with alcohol or drug use? 6. Is there anything else you would like to tell us about your health or the health of others in Tazewell County? Stakeholder Survey: A six-question, open-ended survey is collected from key community stakeholders with insight into the health of the community, more specifically of those in target populations. Stakeholders are identified by the CHAT or by the Project Management Team.
Prioritization After all primary and secondary data collection is complete, the CHAT reviews all data and participates in a prioritization activity. This activity consists of each CHAT member picking the ten most pertinent community needs and ranking them on a scale of one to ten, with one being the most pertinent. The categories listed on the prioritization activity sheet align with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation framework for what influences health (please see Appendix 3 to view the prioritization worksheet). The data are combined and priorities are selected based on the number of times a category is selected in the top 10, with average ranking serving as a tie-breaker. Once the priorities have been selected, the CHAT participates in an activity to rate the feasibility and potential impact of a solution to each health issue.
13
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Framework According to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s (RWJF) County Health Rankings10, where an individual lives, works and plays is a strong predictor of their health outcomes. Currently in the United States, a person’s zip code can help predict their life expectancy due to its direct link to the social determinants of health such as poverty, race/ethnicity, education and employment status in these areas11. These factors are so important to our overall health, that they were added to the 10year national Healthy People 2020 objectives with a goal to “create social and physical environments that promote good health for all”12. Carilion responds to community health needs in innovative ways: making sure our regions have access to state-of-the-art healthcare close to home; providing community grants and sponsorships to extend our mission and support other organizations that address health need; creating and implementing community-wide strategies to reduce barriers, coordinate resources and enhance community strengths; and by providing community-based health and wellness programming. Our community-based programs and community grants are categorized using the RWJF framework for what influences health: health behaviors; social and economic factors; clinical care access and quality; and physical environment13. We measure our success by tracking related indicators at the regional, local, and zip code level, as well as by monitoring change and improvement in the County Health Rankings of our municipalities.
Target Population The target population for Carilion Clinic’s CHA projects consists of the following groups: underserved/vulnerable populations disproportionately impacted by the social determinants of health including poverty, race/ethnicity, education, and/or lack of insurance. Populations are examined across the different life cycles including parents of children and adolescents, women of child-bearing age, adults, and the elderly as well as across various race and ethnic groups.

Community Health Assessment Findings The finding of the 2018 TCCHA revealed 10 priority health-related issues in the community, identified by the CHAT after review of the data collected. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
Alcohol and drug use Access to mental / behavioral health services Transportation / transit system High uninsured / underinsured population Poverty / low average household income High prevalence of chronic disease (general) Access to substance use services Poor diet Access to primary care Lack of health literacy / lack of knowledge of healthy behaviors
The results of the assessment reflected a variety of social determinant of health factors, showing the understood impact that these factors have on overall health. The findings revealed distinct disparities in health for those living in poverty. As in years past, Tazewell County generally performs worse than the Commonwealth of Virginia as a whole. Academic attainment rates were lower as was median household income, more children were eligible for free and reduced lunch, and unemployment rates, while improving, were still lagging the statewide and national averages, impacting the social determinants of health. Many of the respondents to the Community Health Survey and focus group participants, whether insured or uninsured, noted that the cost of care keeps them from accessing preventive care and services. Survey responses revealed “Cost� to be the top reason that people feel prevents them from getting the healthcare they need. Stakeholders identified substance use as the biggest issue that impacts health, followed by lack of insurance. Lack of transportation was identified as the biggest barrier to health, followed by lack of insurance. Target population focus groups also discussed the barriers of transportation and lack of insurance. According to the American Community Survey (ACS), 42.2% of people in Tazewell County live below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) compared to 26.5% for the Commonwealth of Virginia. This rate is even higher for children in Tazewell County. The rate of poverty can be seen through free and reduced lunch qualifications in school systems. As a whole in the 2017/2018 school year, 63% of students in Tazewell County qualified14. Graduation rates in Tazewell County have varied in the last couple of years, but fell shy of the state average of 91.3% in 2017 at 89.5%. Graham High School outperformed the state rate while Richlands High School and Tazewell High School underperformed.

attainment rates for the population 25 and over, Tazewell County has lower overall education levels than the Commonwealth of Virginia at 88.6% of residents with a high school degree or higher and 36.9% with a Bachelor’s degree or higher. In Tazewell, an average of 78.8% of people have a high school degree or higher, and only 14.6% have a Bachelor’s degree or higher15. When asked about the most important issues that affect health in our community, 54.4% of survey respondents answered “alcohol and illegal drug use,” followed by 43.0% answering “cancer,” and 36.6% answering “obesity/overweight.” Stakeholders reported that substance use and transportation were the most important issues. The Virginia Department of Health reports that in 2016, the emergency department (ED) opioid overdose rate in Tazewell County was 78.3 overdoses per 100,000 population. This compares to the state ED opioid overdose rate of 103.5 overdoses per 100,000 population16. The Commonwealth of Virginia, along with many other states, has declared opioid addiction to be a public health emergency and the health commissioner has issued a standing order making Naloxone available to any resident to treat an overdose17. Narcan (Naloxone) use rates have been lower than the state average in Tazewell County at 33.2 per 100,000 population according to Virginia Department of Health data. Fatal prescription overdose rates have been worse than the state rate of 5.5 per 100,000 at 11.9 per 100,000 population18. The CHAT prioritized “alcohol and drug use” as the top health need, recognizing the significance of this crisis in our region. When asked, what health care services were hard to get in our community, survey respondents answered that “specialty care” (40.9%) was the most challenging to access, followed by “cancer care” (38.1%), “alternative therapy” (29.3%), “substance abuse services for drugs and alcohol” (26.1%) and “adult dental care” (25.0%).

Community Impact Response Since the 2016 TCCHA Carilion Clinic responds to community health needs in innovative ways: making sure our regions have access to state-of-the-art healthcare close to home; providing community grants and sponsorships to extend our mission and support other organizations that address health need; creating and implementing community-wide strategies to reduce barriers, coordinate resources and enhance community strengths; and by providing community-based health and wellness programming. Our community-based programs and community grants are categorized by using the RWJF framework for what influences health: health behaviors; social and economic factors; clinical care access and quality; and physical environment. In response to the health needs that were identified in the 2016 TCCHA, Community Health and Outreach hired a part-time Health Educator to serve the Tazewell County area. Since fall of 2016, the hospital has provided 56 holistic health events that included a variety of health education, health screenings and immunizations that reached 1,544 people. Carilion also provided grant funding to the Four Seasons YMCA to build a walking trail open to community. Carilion and community partners have worked hard improve access to services in the area. To increase access to primary care, CTCH has expanded and relocated the Tazewell Family and Community Medicine practice site, added same day appointments, and partnered with the Veterans Administration to expand access to the veteran population. Practice staff has grown by 19 people and the practice reports seeing more patients. In addition, CTCH partnered with the local Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) to administered information packets to patients about Health Insurance Market Place enrollment. To address mental health and substance abuse, CTCH is piloting tele-psychology at the VA Clinic. In addition, CTCH leadership started participating in the Appalachian Substance Abuse Coalition and Tazewell County CCRT. CTCH Leadership serves on the Substance Abuse Taskforce in Rural Appalachia.

Success Measures Tazewell County’s RWJF’s County Health Outcome Ranking has improved for the past three consecutive years, while its Health Factors Ranking has seen a decrease over the last three years. This means that today’s health (outcomes) appears to be improving, while factor that influence health (social determinates, access, environment, and healthy behaviors) is trending in the wrong direction19. In addition to County Health Rankings, Carilion Clinic monitors program outcomes for internal health programming, as well as for grant funded programs. A scorecard is being created to track specific secondary, primary, and program outcome indicators. The analysis below shows directional trends between the 2016 and 2018 CHS results. * Denotes significant change from 2016 measurement.

2018 Community Health Assessment Data Primary Data and Community Engagement Stakeholder Survey Results Throughout the CHA process, community stakeholders, leaders, and providers were encouraged to complete the Stakeholder Survey (Appendix 5: Stakeholder Survey). This survey provided an additional perspective to the needs and barriers to health facing our community. Stakeholder focus groups were held in addition to Stakeholder Survey distribution, to ensure all responses were captured. The survey was available online and in print, and was distributed at meetings and focus groups. In total, 17 surveys were completed: 8 online surveys 9 print surveys 1 focus group Substance use was overwhelmingly identified by stakeholders as the most important issue that impacts health, followed by lack of insurance. Lack of transportation was identified as the biggest barrier to health, closely followed by lack of insurance. No single area was identified as a locality with the greatest unmet need. Most respondents reported that all areas have equal need, though some respondents singled out the smaller rural communities. The population groups identified with the greatest unmet need were those with low income, youth, and the elderly. Respondents identified physician recruitment, access to substance use treatment, and law enforcement support for substance use issues as possible changes the community could make to meet the needs and reduce the barriers to health. Stakeholders were asked the following questions. Main themes, subcategories, and percent of respondents that identified them are graphed.

Focus Group Responses To begin the focus groups, attendees were asked to describe good health. A word cloud was created to show results; the larger the word is in the cloud, the more a term was used. 1. In one or two words, how would you describe good health?
Responses from the rest of the questions revealed that focus groups were aware of the many factors that influence good health- not just clinical care, but socioeconomic factors as well. These social needs can limit access to services and encourage home remedies or neglect in place of preventive and regular care. When care was needed, relying on home remedies was just as frequently identified as going to the doctor or dentist. Long wait times, out-of-town travel, and lack of specialty care were frequent themes as well. One focus group attendee described these barriers, saying “In this area, if you need to see a specialist, you need to go to Tennessee or West Virginia. A lot of people travel a long way or just don’t have the finances or transportation to go.” These needs of financial stability and transportation reflected a common theme from the stakeholder survey as well. Another focus group attendee described the lack of local care and services by saying, “Everything down here is kind of slighted. Virginia seems to stop at Roanoke.” Focus group attendees recognized the many barriers to accessing adequate healthcare, along with the socioeconomic factors that further complicate these barriers.

Tazewell County Community Health Survey Results A Community Health Survey was conducted as part of the Tazewell County Community Health Assessment. This survey was used to evaluate the health of the community and identify potential geographic areas to target improvements. Input and oversight of survey development was provided by the Community Health Assessment Team (CHAT). A 38-question survey instrument was developed that asked questions about socioeconomic factors, access to medical, dental, and mental health care, healthy behaviors, physical environment, health outcomes, and demographics. The survey instrument included commonly used questions and metrics from the following established community surveys: Community Themes and Strengths Assessments, National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) Community Healthy Living Index, YMCA Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, Centers for Disease Control (CDC) National Health Interview Survey, Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, Centers for Disease Control (CDC) Martin County Community Health Assessment, Martin County, North Carolina Previous Tazewell County Community Health Surveys Both an English and Spanish version of the survey was available (Appendix 4: Community Health Survey). The CHAT identified target populations, collection sites, and methods of survey distribution. The population of interest for the survey was Tazewell County residents 18 years of age and older. The following subpopulations were especially targeted for sampling:
Underserved/vulnerable populations disproportionately impacted by the social determinants of health including: o Poverty o Race/ethnicity o Education o Lack of insurance
A non-probability sample method was used, where respondents were not randomly selected. Although the survey was available to all residents living in Tazewell County, oversampling of the targeted subpopulations occurred through specific outreach efforts. Oversampling of the targeted subpopulation ensured that needs and assets specific to this subpopulation of interest were captured. Surveys were distributed in October 2017 through February 2018. Over 10 organizations, agencies, and community members assisted in the distribution of the survey. A drawing for a $50 grocery gift card for those who completed the survey was offered as an incentive. 33
The survey instrument was available via the following methods: Survey Monkey link (www.surveymonkey.com/r/2018CHA) Phone line (888-964-6620) Paper surveys (collected by volunteers and/or staff of partner agencies) Outreach strategies for survey distribution included: Facebook Face-to-face survey interviews at sites / agencies that serve the target populations using volunteers and/or staff Flyers and posters distributed throughout the community with survey URL and phone line information Survey URL posted on partner agency websites In total, 388 surveys were collected: 309 paper surveys 79 online surveys 0 phone surveys All responses were entered into Survey Monkey by survey respondents or by Carilion Direct who entered responses from paper or phone surveys. Surveys were analyzed and reported using Survey Monkey and Microsoft Excel.

Secondary Data Secondary data were collected to obtain a more comprehensive description of our community that goes beyond the scope of the primary data collected throughout the Community Health Assessment process. Relevant information from existing data sources validates the trends seen in primary data collection, but also provides more detailed descriptive information on the characteristics of our community. These population-level measures come from secondary sources such as: The American Community Survey, U.S. Census Bureau Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, Center for Disease Control County Health Rankings, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Virginia Department of Health Virginia Department of Education The demographic data presented first define Tazewell County by population counts, age, income, race/ethnicity, etc. The subsequent sections are organized by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s County Health Rankings Model. Health factors are presented first and include social and economic factors, health behaviors, clinical care, and physical environment. Health outcomes close the secondary data section and include measures on disease status and quality of life. Data are presented by county or smallest available geographic area, and include census tracts from the MUAs when applicable. State and national level data are also included for comparison when available. Links and references to other community health assessments and data can be found in Appendix 8.
