The Delaware Public Health District (DPHD) has announced its Fall Clinic Tour for 2024, making healthcare more accessible with a series of convenient, walk-in clinics throughout Delaware County. With no appointments required, the tour will feature a mobile clinic that will travel to various locations, offering essential health services, including vaccinations, health screenings, and resources such as cribs for families in need.

A Convenient Healthcare Solution

In today’s fast-paced world, getting timely access to healthcare can be challenging. To ease this burden, DPHD’s mobile clinic will provide services directly to local neighborhoods, offering both convenience and care. The Fall Clinic Tour ensures that residents from Powell, Sunbury, Westerville, and other nearby areas have access to critical services, whether they need immunizations, wellness checks, or other healthcare resources.

The mobile clinic is equipped to deliver a range of services, making healthcare accessible to people of all ages without requiring them to visit a traditional medical office. This initiative by DPHD aligns with their mission to promote and protect the health of Delaware County residents.

The Fall Clinic Tour will make several stops across Delaware County, beginning in September and continuing through November. The first clinic was held on Tuesday, September 10 at Heritage Christian Church in Westerville. Below is the full schedule of clinic locations and times:

No Appointments Needed

One of the major benefits of this initiative is that no appointments are necessary to attend any of the clinic events. Delaware residents are encouraged to simply drop by, get the care they need, and leave with the peace of mind that their health is in good hands. By making these health services walk-in accessible, DPHD is removing barriers that can delay or prevent people from seeking preventive care.

What’s Offered at the Clinics?

The mobile clinic will offer a variety of services designed to meet the needs of the community. These services include:

  • Screenings: Routine health checks such as blood pressure measurements, diabetes screenings, and more.
  • Vaccinations: Important immunizations, including flu shots and other vaccines as recommended by healthcare professionals.
  • Cribs and Resources: As part of DPHD’s commitment to family health, cribs will be made available for families in need. Additionally, the clinic will offer guidance on various health-related resources, ensuring that residents are well-informed about maintaining their well-being.

Enhancing Community Health

DPHD continues to set the standard for public health initiatives with its mobile clinic, ensuring that healthcare is within reach for everyone in the community. The Fall Clinic Tour aims to support individuals who may face difficulties accessing traditional healthcare services, whether due to location, time constraints, or other barriers.

This effort highlights the importance of preventive care and the role of accessible services in maintaining the overall health of Delaware County’s residents. Whether you’re a parent seeking immunizations for your child or someone in need of a health screening, DPHD’s Fall Clinic Tour has you covered.
