Who We Are

The Peninsula Health Department has public health nurses who remain constantly visible in the community by providing screening services at health fairs, serving on speaker’s bureaus and various community advisory boards, coalitions, and committees.  

Some services they offer include:

  • Assist with coordination of health care for health department patients with certain medical conditions
  • Provide education and case management aimed at improving quality of care and life
  • Promote self care for individuals by preventing or minimizing the effects of a chronic disease
  • Pre-screen individuals seeking Medicaid long term and nursing facility care and certain Medicaid waivers

They partner with multiple agencies across the Peninsula, including Peninsula Agency on Aging, Riverside's Center for Excellence in Aging, and the YMCA to provide outreach and education to those with chronic diseases. 

The department also provides two programs for expectant parents: a safe sleep class and a car seat class, in which upon completion, they will receive a pack-n-play and car seat, respectively.
