CONTINUING EDUCATION – Our Continuing Education Initiative provides informational presentations, seminars and summits designed to keep clinicians and other medical professionals up-to-date on various public and community health topics. These may include but are not limited to policy briefs and/or updates; statistical data on current epidemics; and diagnosis, treatment, and symptom management of various disease processes.
PROVIDER CAPACITY WORKGROUP – The Provider Capacity Workgroup includes clinicians from Barton Health, Marshall Medical Center, El Dorado Community Health Center, El Dorado Healthy and Human Services Agency and Shingle Springs Wellness Center. The workgroup meets monthly and provides clinical expertise and perspective to identify gaps in healthcare and support development of a system of care for vulnerable populations.
Harm Reduction Services
Sierra Harm Reduction Coalition (SHRC) services provide positive reinforcement to catalyze change for individuals using drugs in the unique community of El Dorado County. Their commitment is to scrape away the barriers created by stigma and discrimination towards drug users.
Their services include safer using kit distribution, syringe exchange, litter cleanup, disease testing, disposal containers, naloxone training, and referrals to essential services. We are building collaborations with a network of service providers, such as substance use disorder treatment, mental health, and social services.
