While these facilities serve a large number of Lowcountry residents, far too many others have to drive 30 minutes or more to reach emergency medical attention. Because having health care closer to residents’ homes results in better outcomes, expanding health care accessibility in the Lowcountry is a community-wide goal. By Isabel Alvarez Arata • Ch de He
