Today, Thunder Bay Community Health Service operates five year round health centers, providing services to over 13,000 patients a year. Our service area includes Montmorency, Presque Isle, Cheboygan, and Alpena County, and all the surrounding areas. A staff of over 90 employees provide family practice health care services; dental services; immunizations; pharmacy services; preventative health care; family planning services; obstetrics and gynecology services (shared care); lab; x-ray; counseling and therapy; acute care; HIV/AIDS counseling and testing; occupational medicine: outreach services; and health education. Clinic sites are open during a wide range of hours to offer these services at times that are convenient for the patient, presented in a culturally sensitive manner, and in a language the patient can understand.
Thunder Bay Community Health Service, Inc. is accredited by "The Joint Commission", and receives partial funding through the Department of Health and Human Services. Over the years, TBCHS has collaborated with many local agencies in the public and private sectors. We have provided nursing services within local schools, participated in grants with our District Health Department, and assisted with the grandparent and senior companion programs.
