Helping to keep Palm Beach County

HE A LTHY and WO RKING Our C. L. Brumback Primary Care Clinics provide quality adult and pediatric care, regardless of the patients’ ability to pay. The clinics are located in West Palm Beach, Lake Worth, Lantana, Delray Beach and Belle Glade. Visit www.BrumbackClinics.org. Our Coordinated Care program offers health coverage and pharmacy benefits at low cost to eligible county residents who do not qualify for other State or Federal health programs. To learn more, call 866-930-0035.

When life-threatening traumatic injury happens, our two Trauma Hawk air ambulances transport the patients safely and rapidly to Palm Beach County’s two specialized Trauma Centers, which are located at Delray Medical Center and St. Mary’s Medical Center.

Lakeside Medical Center, our public hospital in Belle Glade, serves the residents and seasonal farm workers in the large agricultural region bordering Lake Okeechobee. The rural region is a vital part of the county’s economy.

The Edward J. Healey Center in Riviera Beach provides short-term and long-term rehabilitation and 24/7 skilled nursing care for adult residents who have suffered traumatic injury, live with debilitating illness, or are making the transition from hospital to home.

Over 200 Health Care District School Nurses care for nearly 180,000 students in 168 public schools in the county. More than three quarters of the students who visit their School Nurse return to their classes, giving working parents peace of mind to stay at their jobs. Dedicated to the health of our community.
