Safe Healthcare Project
The Safe
Healthcare Project is currently involved in providing Orange
County residents with information and resources to help them
access safe, legitimate health care services and the dangers
of seeking healthcare/prescription medication from unlicensed
providers.
Educational
Materials
As part
of the health education campaign, educational posters and
flyers were created in various languages (English, Spanish,
Vietnamese, Laotian, Cambodian). Included on the posters
and flyers is the Health Care Agency health referral telephone
line. Additionally, a health resource list is located on the
back of the program flyers. Presently, the Safe Healthcare
Project is soliciting community programs to help distribute
these posters and flyers.
Health
Resource List
The Orange County health resource list -- conveniently featured
on the back of the program flyers --- is a compilation of
local community clinics,
public health clinics
and medical centers where you can find low-cost services for
children and adults. Many clinics offer services ranging from
pediatric, adult, women's health, mental health, and dental,
or other urgent care. A select few are open late week nights
and Saturdays, please call the clinics for further information.
Presentations
& Training
We have developed presentations and trainings to encourage
others to share and integrate the safe healthcare message
into their current outreach activities. If you are a community
agency or group that is interested in promoting the safe healthcare
message to your community and outreach program, please call
(714) 796-8295 or use the order form to request additional
material.
