The state’s department of health works to protect and improve the health and well-being of all Californians. To that goal, the organization offers programs statewide by public health professionals to assure that food is safe, children have their immunizations, workplaces are safe and birth certificates are correct — to name just a few.
The department’s main office is in Sacramento, with local health units in many of the state’s 58 counties. Thousands of employees and public and private partners help make the department’s goal a reality — making a difference by helping people make their lives healthier. Its website has information on health topics, services available and a listing of local health units by region.
Local health units offer a variety of services, including communicable disease investigation and intervention, immunizations, STD counseling and testing, WIC and nutrition services, women’s health services and more. Services vary by location. For a full list of local health units, their hours of operation and their available services, visit the following public health websites for Kings and Fresno counties.
