Telepsychiatry
What We Do
North Carolina Statewide Telepsychiatry Program (NC STeP) is a community-based behavioral health program the Duplin County Health Department partners with to provide Telepsychiatry services on site. Duplin County joined NC-STeP in May 2019 to provide behavioral health services, to improve the quality of life for those not receiving necessary treatment due to an insufficient amount of behavioral health providers within the county.
Who We Serve
We serve all residents in Duplin County 18 years and older.
How We Impact
By providing Telepsychiatry services through NC-STeP within the Health Department, we are able to address and provide treatment for behavioral health issues that residents would otherwise have to travel out of county to receive.
