Whiteside County Health Department (WCHD) is a comprehensive agency in Illinois, providing a wide range of healthcare services. Established in 1966, WCHD has evolved into a full-service organization with approximately 150 employees. Alongside offering traditional public health services such as environmental and infectious disease management, immunizations, and maternal/child health programs, WCHD also operates a federally funded Community Health Clinic (WCCHC).

WCCHC was established in 2006 to address the lack of access to medical, dental, and behavioral health services in the community. The clinic operates on a sliding fee scale, ensuring that no patient is denied services based on their ability to pay. WCCHC accepts various insurance programs, including Medicaid, Medicare, Children's Health Insurance Programs, and third-party insurance.

With multiple locations, WCHD is dedicated to providing high-quality healthcare to the residents of Whiteside County
