Staff Spotlight: Public Health Nurses

The primary focus of public health nursing is to promote health and prevent disease for the entire community. The Wellesley Health Department has two full time public heath nurses and five part-time nurses who provide the following: 

• Disease surveillance including investigating communicable diseases,
• Providing vaccines such as Flu, COVID-19 and school required vaccines,
• Offer  "Keep Well Clinics" to check blood pressure and answer your health questions (see schedule here), and
• Respond to health-related inquiries from the community and provide support for at-risk and vulnerable residents.
