Northeast Kentucky AHEC

Northeast Kentucky AHEC The NEKY AHEC is one of eight regional centers in Kentucky that has a mission of enhancing access to quality health care in rural and underserved areas.

The Northeast AHEC serves a 17-county region of Northeastern Kentucky. This region, which sits at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, is in many ways an underserved area of the state. Fourteen of our seventeen counties are designated as Appalachian counties, Medically Underserved Areas (MUA) and/or Medically Underserved Populations (MUP). These counties include: Bath, Boyd, Carter, Clark,

Elliott, Fleming, Greenup, Lawrence, Lewis, Mason, Menifee, Montgomery, Morgan, Nicholas, Powell, Robertson, Rowan.

It’s been a busy and rewarding few weeks at Northeast AHEC as we wrapped up two successful CHASE camps, reaching a total of 30 high school students!

Our first camp of the summer was held June 4–5 in Clark County in partnership with Centerpoint Health. Students explored a variety of healthcare careers through hospital tours, hands-on activities such as suturing, blood typing, and dissection, and a special visit from the AirEvac team, who flew in for a helicopter tour. We are especially grateful to begin this new partnership with Centerpoint Health and look forward to collaborating together more!

Our second camp took place June 11–12 in Mason County in partnership with PrimaryPlus. Students participated in hands-on healthcare activities, connected with healthcare professionals, toured PrimaryPlus facilities, explored career pathways, and gained valuable insight into the many opportunities available in the healthcare field. We are thankful for PrimaryPlus’s continued partnership and commitment to providing meaningful experiences for students in our region.
