Health Centers Let FACHC Know What You Need

FACHC wants to ensure Florida's Health Centers and their patients can access resources in times of emergency. To do so, we ask that Health Centers report damage at any of their sites resulting in an inability to provide services, along with requests for supplies and other resources needed to get back to operational status to FACHC as soon as possible. Please report your Health Center's situation and resources needed using the Live Response Tool or by contacting Gianna Van Winkle, Director of Emergency Management Programs, at 850-591-1832 or [email protected].
