Mission Statement
To preserve, protect, and promote health and well being,
and to improve the quality of life for all City residents.
Welcome
The Bethlehem Health Bureau (BHB), officially
founded in 1980, ensures the health of the Bethlehem City
community by utilizing the three core functions of public
health: needs assessment, service assurance and progressive
education. Through the four program areas, which include Chronic
Disease, Communicable Disease, Environmental Health Services
and Maternal/Child Health, the Health Bureau implements health
strategies focusing on the goals identified in Pennsylvania’s
Healthy People 2010.
Flu Clinics
Flu season begins in October,
peaks in January and can end as late as April. The best way
to protect yourself from the flu is by getting vaccinated
every year. Children, the elderly and persons with a chronic
illness are most at risk for flu complications.
The Bethlehem Health Bureau offers walk-in
flu clinics each week:
Monday & Friday between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m.
