Women's Health Services:

Breast and Cervical Cancer Screenings

Being screened for breast and cervical cancer helps women stay healthy and finds problems early. The health department helps provide low-cost mammograms and Pap tests to women age 40 – 64 who meet income guidelines and have no insurance.

Family Planning

Family Planning helps women make decisions about their reproductive health. The health department offers a variety of birth control options. All counseling, education, pregnancy testing, and birth control services are provided with confidentiality. Clients can also choose to have “no home contact” to protect their privacy.

Prenatal Care

Beginning prenatal care as soon as you find out you are pregnant is very important. Research has shown that women who start prenatal care early in their pregnancy tend to have fewer medical problems and deliver healthier babies than women who delay or do not continue prenatal care. We can help pregnant women find prenatal care as early as possible and to continue prenatal care until delivery.

WIC

If you are pregnant, recently had a baby, are breastfeeding or have a child younger than 5 years of age, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) could help you. WIC offers personalized information on health and nutrition for mothers and their children, healthy foods, and referrals to doctors and other programs. Families must meet household income levels.

Breastfeeding

Breastfeeding helps babies grow normally and helps mothers recover from childbirth. The health department helps mothers and babies learn to breastfeed through many programs, particularly WIC and HANDS. Learn the ‘how to’s’ of breastfeeding before your baby is born. Once baby arrives, get help from your hospital or health department. WIC participants may be able to get a free breast pump.
