Community health services prepare health professionals for positions in community/public health. A community health educator might be employed at a health department, service organization, volunteer health agency, state or federal health agency, hospital or workplace. The goal is to improve the health of their clients/employees and lower health care costs/expenditures. The health educator is responsible for assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of programs. In addition to these responsibilities, the health educator is expected to coordinate health programs, as they communicate effectively and serve as a resource in the community.
