HARDEE COUNTY HEALTHCARE COALITION
Building a Stronger Preparedness Network
The Hardee County Healthcare Coalition is an association of community healthcare organizations with disaster planning and operational responsibilities or capabilities. The coalition is dedicated to creating and promoting a state of readiness while supporting recovery efforts to protect the health of Hardee County residents during catastrophic events, large scale disasters, and emergencies.
Through coordination among public health providers, private medical providers, public safety agencies, and government officials, the coalition works to strengthen preparedness, identify community needs, and support an effective response to emergencies.
Our Mission
Preparing Hardee County to Respond
The mission of the Hardee Health and Medical Preparedness Coalition is to enhance collaborative response efforts to disasters and emergencies by mobilizing local assets to meet community, county, and regional needs.
Our approach is built on collaboration across the healthcare and emergency preparedness community, bringing together public health providers, private medical providers, public safety agencies, government officials, and community organizations to strengthen readiness and response.
