In health care, you have many career choices. If you truly want to make a difference, and your compassion, drive and desire to help the community match ours, we invite you to explore the opportunities at Lorain County Health & Dentistry. You’ll be happy you did.

We all work together to make the idea of bringing health care to the underserved a reality throughout Lorain County.
