Ballad Health Donates Safety Equipment For Sullivan County Jail

When Ballad Health applied for its certificate of public advantage during its merger process, it agreed to invest in preventative public health measures. The health care provider is now following through with that pledge. As part of its commitment to provide preventative public health and control health care costs, Ballad is donating a full body scanner to deter and detect contraband from coming into the correctional facility. The scanner will be installed at the back entrance to the Sullivan County main jail facility. Ballad also donated funds to modify the back entrance of the jail for the installment of the scanner.
