Treating the Whole Person and Educating the Community

The Codman Square Health Center is a community-based, outpatient health care and multi-service center. The Center goes beyond providing clinical solutions to clinical conditions — the goal is to promote a culture of health. The strength of the Codman Square Health Center lies in both the strength of its clinical facilities, as well as its community services.  Initiatives address the social, emotional and educational needs of adults and youth while celebrating the cultural and ethnic diversity of the community and the potential of every individual.  In 2009, the Codman Square staff are pursuing the use of Federal Stimulus dollars to build a brand new health center and school with "cutting edge green features."

Their Description: 

The Codman Square Health Center is a community-based, outpatient health care and multi-service center.

Our focus on primary care at Codman Square is based on a practice model that enables us to provide care for every family member throughout his or her life. We treat the whole person, not just the disease.
