 THE FAMILY HEALTH CLINIC
Our friendly and
professional team has been providing quality
medical services
and preventive health
education to the community for over twenty
years.
In late 1970's, Chinatown Service Center
recognized that access to low-cost health care
for Asian immigrants was limited due to
linguistic and cultural issues. In order to meet
the health needs of the community, CSC
established the Family Health Clinic in 1980 to
provide accessible, affordable, and
culturally-appropriate health services. Funded
by the California Family Health Council, the
Clinic began offering family planning and
women's health related services. Volunteer
doctors provided limited primary health care for
family planning and prenatal patients. As the
community needs became more specific, the Clinic
began expanding its services to cover more
primary health care patients through additional
state and federal funding in 1989. Services were
available not only to women but also for their
families-husband, children, and the elderly.
Currently, with over 15
full-time staff, the Clinic provides quality
health care services to over 4,000 low-income
individuals and families, mainly Chinese and
Vietnamese, representing over 10,000 patients
visits a year. Our full-time/ part-time/
volunteer physicians, nurse practitioner,
licensed vocational nurse, and other healthcare
professionals provide primary and perinatal
care, immunization, family planning counseling
tobacco control, Hepatitis B, breast cancer
awareness and other health services. To promote
disease prevention and health maintenance among
immigrant families, the Clinic's community
health workers and outreach staff provide health
education onsite as well as in the community.
Through community outreach activities, Clinic
health workers are able to educate and provide
information on the importance of primary health
care and CSC's low-cost services. The Clinic
ensures all services are available for the
uninsured, under-served individuals who would
otherwise go without care.
