The Health Department thanks you for your patience during our response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While some health centers were temporarily closed, our staff was very busy working at multiple locations in our three counties testing thousands of individuals for COVID-19. COVID-19 testing is still ongoing, and will be for some time, but we are happy to open all health centers to provide our regular services.

Due to COVID-19, the following changes have occurred at our health centers:

  • Most services require an appointment.
  • Visitors over two years of age will be required to wear a face covering.
  • Visitors will have their temperature taken and symptoms checked upon arrival.
  • Visitors will be required to maintain social distancing.

Plan for your visit.

  • Make an appointment for services.

Due to COVID-19, most services now require appointments. Walk-in services are limited.

Please call your health center to make an appointment for the following services:

  • Stay home if sick.

Please stay home if you are sick or have any symptoms of COVID-19 to prevent others from becoming ill.

  • Bring a face covering.

What to expect when you visit.

Your temperature will be taken and symptoms checked when you arrive at the health center. You will be expected to practice social distancing and wear a face covering to protect health center staff and visitors.

Again, thank you for your patience these past few months. Together, we can prevent the spread of COVID-19.
