The West Central District Health Department is re-opening our Public Health Clinic beginning on August 1st, 2016. The clinic will be located within its main location at 111 North Dewey Street North Platte, NE 69101.
Patients with or without insurance can make the Public Health Clinic their primary health care provider. Services will include: yearly physicals, back to school physicals, sports physicals, preventative medical services, immunizations, travel immunizations, preventative screenings, and patient navigators to link our patients to other needs such as food, housing, transportation.
The public health clinic will provide quality health care services to those who previously had limited access to primary care. “Our commitment is to promote the care of the whole person by enhancing access to care through a comprehensive approach; addressing all patient needs that impact their health and empowering patients to actively participate in their care. WCDHD can provide individuals with dental care, preventative health care, education, and links to our partners through our patient navigators,” said Shannon Vanderheiden, Executive Director.
WCDHD would like to thank our community partners who helped in re-opening the public health clinic to increase the access to health care. The partnership and donations from Great Plains Health and Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation grant has allowed WCDHD’s public health clinic to begin seeing patients August 1st.
