A safety-net rural health clinic about 4 miles from Campbell Station. Sliding-scale STD testing and care are typical here, call ahead to confirm the exact panel and pricing.
Tests offered
ARcare in Newport covers gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, herpes, rapid and conventional HIV, hepatitis A, B, and C, and TB. With bacterial STIs treated the same visit. Fees follow a sliding scale, and appointments are required.
ARcare provides interpretation services for non-English languages across its care, meaning questions about test results, treatment instructions, and medication guidance are handled in the language a patient uses at home. Not summarized for them afterward.
ARcare holds the standing capacity to prescribe both PrEP and PEP on-site, useful for anyone who needs ongoing HIV prevention medication but lacks a dedicated infectious disease provider. Uninsured patients can access PrEP through a dedicated program, keeping cost from blocking a long-term prevention strategy.
Direct-acting antiviral treatment for hepatitis C (the curative drug course, not just the antibody screen) is managed at ARcare in Newport. Keeping diagnosis and treatment within the same practice means the prescribing relationship, monitoring, and follow-up all stay with one clinical team.

STD stats & rates
How reported STI rates in Jackson County, the county that includes Campbell Station, compare with Arkansas and U.S. averages, based on the most recent 2023 surveillance data. An estimated ~31% of residents are aged 15–34 (ACS), the age group with the highest reported chlamydia and gonorrhea rates nationally.
#19 of 75 Arkansas counties for chlamydia, a higher rate than 75% of the state
| Infection | Jackson County | Arkansas | United States |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | 691.1 116 cases ▲ 19% | 579.6 | 492.2 |
| Gonorrhea | 196.6 33 cases ▲ 2% | 193.4 | 179.5 |

| Syphilis (early) | 65.5 11 cases ▲ 279% | 17.3 | 16 |

Reading these numbers: reported case rates only count infections that were actually tested for and diagnosed, so they track local screening effort as much as true spread: a higher rate can reflect more testing, a lower one less. Either way, most STIs cause no symptoms, so treat the figures above as context rather than a verdict, and test on the CDC's schedule regardless of how your area looks.
Between 2020 and 2023 in Jackson County, chlamydia has risen from 573 to 691.1 per 100,000 (21%), gonorrhea has fallen from 310.4 to 196.6 per 100,000 (37%), and P&S syphilis has risen from 23.9 to 35.7 per 100,000 (49%).

Community health context
Sources: CDC PLACES (ZIP), County Health Rankings, CDC/ATSDR SVI, HRSA HPSA, HRSA MUA/P, Neighborhood Atlas ADI. Lower insurance coverage, fewer routine checkups, and a thin primary-care ratio all raise the value of low-cost public clinics and at-home testing in Jackson County.

Jackson County HIV care continuum (2020)
Jackson County recorded 0 new HIV diagnoses per 100,000 (2020), against 11.8 statewide and 13.7 nationally. Among Jackson County residents living with HIV, 11.1% are in care · 11.1% are virally suppressed. Early, routine testing is what moves these numbers: it is the entry point to PrEP, treatment, and viral suppression.
Sources: AIDSVu (Emory/Gilead) · CDC AHEAD · CDC AtlasPlus · CDC NCHHSTP AtlasPlus (county care continuum). The CDC recommends everyone aged 13–64 test for HIV at least once: every lab and clinic listed above offers HIV testing, and free rapid HIV testing is available at a local health department.
Congenital syphilis, passed from parent to baby in pregnancy, is the fastest-rising STI in the country. U.S. cases climbed from 2,163 in 2020 to 3,882 in 2023. It is almost entirely preventable: the CDC recommends a syphilis test at the first prenatal visit, and every clinic and lab listed for Jackson County tests for syphilis.

Data & references
Local context
AR 18 stretches east out of Campbell Station toward Newport, and for anyone making the drive to reach one of the options listed on this page, that trip is the first thing to plan around. With nearly nine in ten residents owning their homes, most at values well below state averages, this is a community of people who have settled in, not passing through, which shapes the rhythm of daily life in practical ways. That settled character runs alongside real economic strain. Unemployment here is meaningfully elevated, and just over one in ten households clears six figures, so the cost of a clinic visit (time, gas along AR 18, any out-of-pocket fee) is a calculation people actually make. For younger adults still establishing themselves, that calculation lands harder.
Campbell Station's share of people in their late teens and twenties is substantial, and those are the years when relationship patterns shift most and when a missed test is most likely to have consequences. Low-cost, low-travel options listed here matter precisely because the nearest sites require a deliberate trip, not a lunchtime errand. Half of adult residents are married, household sizes cluster around two and a half people, and most adults are in the workforce. Meaning testing fits not around a free afternoon but around a shared schedule, a second car, a day off that's already spoken for.
Getting there
At 6.71/20 on the EPA walkability index, day-to-day errands in Campbell Station generally mean driving: plan on a car or rideshare to reach a clinic, and check each listing's hours and phone before you go.

Two things that actually depend on Arkansas law: who can consent, and whether partners can be treated without their own visit. Everything else about testing privately is the same nationwide (see below).
In Arkansas, a minor of any age can consent to confidential STI testing and treatment on their own, no parental permission is required.
Arkansas permits Expedited Partner Therapy (EPT): if you test positive for chlamydia or gonorrhea, your provider can give you medication (or a prescription) to pass to your partner, no separate exam or appointment needed for them.
Keeping a test private works the same in every state. Whether an STD test shows on insurance (the EOB), how to test anonymously, and self-pay options that leave no insurance trail don’t change by location.
