will help with academic detailing with

providers around prescription drug

abuse, the PMP system, and follow up

to preventive care. This has not been

done yet with this group so we look

forward to the impact that it can bring

to Garfield County.

The Health Planning Committee chair

Janet Cordell was instrumental in get-

ting the Community Clinic up and go-

ing several years ago. Since then the

clinic has grown and taken on different

projects and partnerships. One of those

projects is to help women in the need of

mammograms get the care that they

need for early detection. Through a

partnership with Oklahoma Project

Woman, the clinic has referred over 30

women from Garfield County to the

program where they are provided free

mammograms, diagnostic procedures

and surgical services for Oklahomans of

any age with no health insurance and

limited financial resources.

Through partnerships in Garfield Coun-

ty, the coalition has worked toward

making Garfield healthier, other pro-

jects the coalition was involved in this

year were:

Certified Healthy Oklahoma

Tobacco Prevention Policies and

The Health Planning Committee is a sub-

committee of the Enid Metropolitan Area

Human Service Commission. The priori-

ties of the Health Planning Committee

include the following: MAPP (Mobilizing

for Action through Planning and Partner-

ships), Dental Assistance, Mental Health

Issues, Tobacco Control, and Physical

Fitness and Nutrition.

The Coalition has been focusing on the

completion of the Community Health

Improvement Plan (CHIP) in order to

plan strategically around the needs of the

community.

The top five elements of health were iden-

tified for Garfield County. They include:

Access to Healthcare and Mental

Health

Childhood Health and Infant Mortali-

ty

Tobacco, Alcohol and Other Drugs

Chronic Disease

Physical Activity and Nutrition

(Obesity)

The Coalition, along with the community,

has been working throughout the year to

address these issues already.

This year the coalition and partners in Gar-

field County was instrumental in the plan-

ning stages of OKMOM and actually get-

ting it to be housed this year in Enid. This

event brought several thousands of dollars

in dental care to the area at no cost to the

citizens. It was all voluntary and was a

great show of community partnerships.

To continue their efforts around dental

care the Coalition was also instrumental in

getting the dental van and providers to

Enid every 3 months to provide the neces-

sary dental care to those that needed it.

Every time the van was in Enid this year it

severed around 30 people each time. Being

able to provide the necessary dental care to

these patients is not only beneficial to their

dental health but also their overall health as

well.

This year, Garfield County Health Plan-

ning Committee became a Certified Health

Improvement Organization (CHIO). This

will give the coalition the opportunity to

apply for grant funding to work specifical-

ly with primary care providers on preven-

tion efforts in the community. The grant
