Ahoskie Roanoke-Chowan Medical Supply Hub – US‑13, NC‑42 & Coastal Plain Gateway
Hertford County anchors ECU Health Roanoke-Chowan Hospital, Vidant/ECU clinics, ECU Health Bertie, Sentara Albemarle, agricultural processors, timber producers, and cross-border EMS between North Carolina and Virginia tidewater. Our LAC Health counter inside Walmart #1950 at 2150 US‑13 South keeps ECU Health Roanoke-Chowan, Sentara outreach, Vidant Bertie, MedEx EMS, Perdue Farms clinics, and hurricane shelter teams stocked without driving to Greenville or Norfolk.
Within 40 miles are ECU Health Roanoke-Chowan, Sentara Albemarle Regional, Vidant Bertie, ECU Health Beaufort, Naval Auxiliary Landing Field Fentress, Dominion substations, and the US‑13/US‑17/US‑158 corridors. Hurricanes, river flooding, farm surges, timber incidents, and cross-border EMS calls demand a “medical suppliers near me” counter fluent in Roanoke-Chowan ICS—this Ahoskie hub delivers.
Ahoskie blends Black Belt farm communities, three-state logistics, and growing renewable energy sites. LAC Health supports that diversity with generator-backed cold rooms, bilingual (English/Spanish) documentation, and MOUs with Hertford County EM, Albemarle Regional Health Services, and NC/VA mutual aid partners.
