NERHA was born out of the National Health Service Act in 1997 and the Government of Jamaica's Health Reform programme which saw the decentralizing of health service delivery. Under decentralization, the management of delivery of health services shifted from central government (Ministry of Health) to 4 semi-autonomous bodies - the Regional Health Authorities (RHA). RHAs have the responsibility for the operation and management of health services within a defined geographic area. NERHA is one of the health authorities. The mission of NERHA is, in partnership with other stakeholders, to promote the physical, mental, social and spiritual well-being and enhanced quality of life for the residents of St. Ann, St. Mary and Portland. This by empowering individuals and communities and ensuring access to adequate health care through the provision of cost-effective, promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative services. Vision: Healthy lifestyles, healthy environment...healthy people
