Background
The Health District of Northern Larimer County (Health District) was established in 1960 as a tax funded public entity organized under the special district laws of the State of Colorado. It owned and operated Poudre Valley Hospital until 1994, when the District's publicly elected board voted to retain ownership of the hospital but create a locally controlled private, not-for-profit organization to take over the day-to-day management of the hospital under a lease agreement. Based on an extensive assessment of community health needs, the Health District began introducing services in 1996 designed to improve the community's health status.
The Health District provides direct health services to priority populations and works collaboratively with multiple community partners to accomplish health improvements that no one agency can accomplish alone. The boundaries of the Health District encompass the northern two-thirds of Larimer County and include the cities of Fort Collins, Laporte, Wellington, Timnath, Livermore and Red Feather Lakes. The Health District programs and services are administered through three office locations in Fort Collins. Please visit our website at www.healthdistrict.org for more information about the organization.
The organization aims to enhance Information Technology infrastructure and functions to foster increased collaboration and quality of services. This includes defining the values of the departments' services to support the organization’s mission, as well as supporting the infrastructure, technical expertise and support services to support current and future organizational needs.
