The Lake Cumberland District Health Department focuses on public and preventative health. We do so by offering on-site clinics, off-site programs and by engaging our communities to adopt health-focused policies and initiatives.
Our mission is, “To promote and protect the health of all who live, work, learn and play throughout the Lake Cumberland area.”
At LCDHD, we are proud to offer a variety of exceptional services that meet the unique needs of individuals and families.
