According to public records, The Navarro County Public Health Department has had roots in Corsicana since 1941. It may have been a community fixture even before records indicate, however, with a multitude of well-meaning leaders to guide the public toward safer futures. Today, the Health Department is operated by eight individuals who are devoted to ensuring our community has access to various health necessities, including Director of Nursing, Sharon Thomas.
The Navarro County Health Department handles immunizations, food safety inspections and various health and wellness screenings so, for assistance with any of the above or to see if they can assist you, you can call them at (903)874-6711 or find them at their beautiful new location in historic downtown Corsicana, 115 W Collin Street.
The new location officially opened July 1st, but was officially celebrated on August 1st with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by a large number of board members, Corsicana citizens and, of course, Mayor Fletcher. Dedicated to Billie Conger, RN. who had previously served Navarro County for 40 years, the new mission statement read “To prevent illness and promote good health and also to provide comprehensive services for our city and county.”
