What if a yearly checkup came to you?

Our In-Home Annual Wellness Visit program helps older adults stay connected to care without the challenges of traveling to a clinic. Along the way, these visits can uncover concerns that might otherwise go unnoticed and connect patients with support that helps them continue living independently.

For 25 years, Yakima Valley Farm Workers Clinic has partnered with Reach Out and Read Northwest to help children build a strong foundation for learning and lifelong health. Over the past year alone, our providers helped distribute 23,107 books to families and connected 11,322 children with the joy of reading.

A book can do more than tell a story. It creates opportunities for families to spend time together, supports language development, and helps children build skills that prepare them for success in school and beyond. Thank you to our providers, staff, and community partners who make this work possible every day. ❤️📚

Sometimes the most important part of a well-child visit isn't what happens in the exam room. It's the chance for parents and caregivers to ask questions, share concerns, and better understand their child's development.

In our latest blog, Clinic Medical Director Dan Richmond discusses why routine checkups are critical to supporting children's long-term health and development, especially in communities where specialty care may be harder to access. Read it here: yvfwc.com/blog/38255/

When people think about pediatric dentistry, they often think about healthy smiles. But the impact goes much further than that.

Dr. Joe Wilson shared a powerful story about a child whose unexplained behaviors were ultimately linked to severe dental pain. It's a reminder that access to dental care can help children sleep better, learn better, and thrive.

Please join us in congratulating our Advanced Practice Clinician residents on completing their residency program!

Over the past year, they have worked alongside experienced mentors, expanded their clinical expertise, and gained hands-on experience caring for patients across all stages of life. Their training helps strengthen access to high-quality healthcare in rural and underserved communities, ensuring more patients can receive the care they need close to home.

Behind every graduate is a year of growth, mentorship, and service. Read our blog to learn more about the APC Residency Program and the difference it makes for both clinicians and the communities they serve. https://www.yvfwc.com/blog/38119/
