Public Health Lecture about
Hypertension February 18
Do you or a family member have questions about hypertension?
“Hypertension” will be the focus of a
public health lecture at Northeast Alabama Community College
(NACC) next Wednesday, February 18, at 12:00 noon in the Health
Education Building (Room 106) on the NACC campus. This is the
fourth in a series of free public lectures on health issues for
interested people in the College’s service area. The lecture
will be presented by Dr. Thomas Horton of Rainsville. Following
the lecture will be a question and answer session.
“Providing lectures for the public on
health issues is one way that we are pursuing the goal of even a
more vital role in our community in regard to health care,”
stated NACC President Dr. David Campbell. Campbell noted that
this mission adds to the College’s fundamental and extremely
important role of training health care workers to serve
community needs. “Our new building has the name Health Education
Center in it. We want the Center to be exactly that – a place in
our community where people can obtain education on all kinds of
health care needs, both in regard to educational training as
well as information for the public that we provide through our
lecture series. We like to think that we are expanding the
definition of health care education at the community college
level by providing this lecture series for the public and our
students and staff.”

informative discussion on hypertension, please join us. For more
