CareSouth Carolina to host Community Health Fair in Bishopville

BISHOPVILLE, S.C. — CareSouth Carolina is excited to announce its upcoming Community Health Fair, an event aimed at connecting communities with a wide range of healthcare resources and support.

The fair will take place on Saturday, April 27, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Bishopville High Memorial Gym, at 121 E. College Street, Bishopville, SC.

The event promises an engaging and informative experience for attendees, featuring an array of offerings, including food, giveaways, health resources, family support services, health and wellness guidance, and essential health screenings.

By bringing all of this together, CareSouth Carolina seeks to underline its commitment to delivering not only healthcare but also a comprehensive approach to promoting overall well-being in its community. This is the second Community Health Fair organized by CareSouth Carolina, with the first one being in Dillon last fall.

“Our Community Health Fair evolved from our community-focused engagements across all five counties,” CareSouth Carolina Chief of Community Health Joe Bittle said. “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.”
