CareOregon and community partners team to provide primary health care, other services

Access to health care in the Portland metro area is getting a little easier. CareOregon is teaming up with community partners to help open four new clinics for primary care. Two of them are already open; the others will open by fall.

Two of the clinics—Beaverton and Milwaukie—will be operated by CareOregon Community Health. Rockwood will be operated by Multnomah County Health Department. Gladstone will be operated by Clackamas County Health Department.

Each of these four clinics will be able to provide medical services and more to people who previously had difficulty getting health care services. Each has the room to expand and offer care to more people as needed to meet demand.
