About Abrams Public Health Center
Abrams Public Health Center is a Pima County Health Department location and a community resource serving Tucsonans in need. Its work is connected to the county's broader network of health clinics, which offers services across multiple locations and welcomes anyone seeking confidential, judgment-free support. The clinics are staffed by licensed medical professionals, and the county provides referrals when a requested service is not available at one of its clinics.
Abrams is one of the Pima County locations supporting the local Women, Infants and Children program, commonly known as WIC. The program provides services through several county offices and clinics, with eligibility information available through the county's WIC resources. Abrams also serves as a location for vital records assistance. Visitors can request birth and death certificates, register a home birth, and receive information about applications, forms, and valid forms of identification. The county maintains separate information about vital records services and related fees.
The county's health clinic network also provides a range of other services at designated locations. These include general wellness checks and screenings, immunizations for children and adults, tuberculosis services, sexual health care, family planning, and support related to HIV prevention. General wellness offerings can include blood pressure checks, height and weight measurements, tuberculosis skin tests, and screening and referrals for tobacco or nicotine cessation resources, mental health care, and substance use treatment. Clinics may also provide referrals for primary care and low-cost dental services, telehealth treatment for COVID-19 or substance use, and health supplies such as COVID-19 at-home tests, menstrual supplies, condoms, Narcan, and clean syringes. Specific services vary by location.
For people seeking tuberculosis care, the Pima County TB Control Program provides provider consultations, medical evaluations for suspected cases, management for people diagnosed with active tuberculosis, and evaluation and treatment for people exposed to tuberculosis. The program also offers resources for providers serving high-risk populations, disease surveillance and reporting, and community training and education. Other county offerings include free breast and cervical cancer screenings for uninsured or underinsured women in Arizona through the Well Woman HealthCheck program, along with immunizations that include routine vaccines and seasonal COVID-19 and flu vaccines. International travel vaccinations are not offered through the county clinics.
Before visiting Abrams or another Pima County clinic, residents should review the current clinic schedule because hours, services, and walk-in availability can change by location. Walk-in services are available as capacity allows, and wait times may vary based on the number of patients seeking care. County clinics close daily between noon and 1 p.m. and on the first Thursday of each month. People who need a service not provided at the clinics can complete the county's Health Referral Form, after which a Health Navigator is expected to reach out within seven business days. Health care providers and other clinics can also use the county's external referral process, with clinic staff contacting referred patients within three business days.
