The Christian County Health Department is now doing lab draws for patients.  Those who require blood work or similar tests can visit the Health Department’s offices at 730 North Pawnee Street.  The new offering is designed to help patients receive these tests for a lower cost, in many cases, than they would incur at a doctor’s office.  It’s just one of several changes the CCHD has implemented for 2026. 

Chelsey Davis is the Director of Nursing at the Christian County Health Department.  She says these tests will be available on Mondays.

The department’s new mental health screening tool, Credible Mind, is now available.  Peyton Langen, Mental Health Case Manager with CCHD, says users can answer questions, and the system uses the responses to look for signs of mental health challenges.  The screening is available at christiancountyhealth.crediblemind.com. 

Langen along with Public Health Administrator Dr. Chad Anderson also note that the screening tool is designed to direct users to local resources based on their responses

Dr. Chad Anderson, Chelsey Davis, and Peyton Langen appeared as guests on the WTIM Morning Show.
