History
Community Health Services was established as an operational area under the direction of an Assistant Deputy Minister. It was a merger of divisions, branches, and services originally reporting to the Assistant Deputy Minister of Health Standards, together with the Area Planning Co-ordinators, who originally reported to the Assistant Deputy Minister of Health Services.
Its areas of responsibility included the Area Planning Co-ordinators, Personal Health Division, and Community Health Division. In 1979, the Personal Health and Community Health Divisions were merged into a new Health Programs Division and the District Health Council Program was added.
Community Health Services ceased to exist in 1982; it was replaced by the Assistant Deputy Minister, Public and Mental Health, with a much broader scope.
