Prenatal Care Clinic

To address the health needs of pregnant people in our community, SAH has partnered with community health care providers to open a Prenatal Care Clinic that will provide prenatal care for low-risk patients. The opening of the Prenatal Care Clinic is an interim step to support the care needs of pregnant people in our community

The clinic is located in the Women and Children’s Health Program (1A).
