Our vision for Round Valley is a safe, productive and positive environment that promotes health, well-being and positive relationships within families, which can then extend to relationships with the community at large. What We Do
We understand that your health concerns continue after you
leave the clinic and return home. Our Outreach Team is here to help bridge the
gap between your medical visit at the Health Center and your needs at home. Diabetes Case Management
Our Diabetes Education Nurse Mikael Aragon works one on one
with each of our diabetes patients to help them understand how to better manage
their health. Community Diabetes Action Council
The Community Diabetes Action Council (CDAC) is a project of RVIHC’s Outreach Department. The
goal of the CDAC is to educate and empower the Round Valley community of
diabetes patients to manage their health for the best possible quality of life.
Public Health Services
Our staff works to assess and address
community wide health needs. Public Health can include everything from
vaccinations to addressing barriers to healthy eating and physical activity, to street medicine and at risk patients. Our staff works to optimize health for everyone in the valley.
Home Visits The medical staff is available in select cases to make
home visits. The goal of home visits is to decrease hospital readmissions and
help elders stay safely at home for as long as possible. Transportation Jody Boggs leads our transportation department. Our drivers
