The Henry & Stark County Health Department’s First Choice Healthcare Clinics in Kewanee and Toulon are enhancing access to family planning and reproductive health services. These clinics provide essential care such as annual physicals, breast exams, Pap smears, contraceptives—including Depo shots, Nexplanon, and free condoms—plus pregnancy testing. Notably, services are available on a sliding fee scale, potentially at no cost, depending on income. Medicaid and private payments are accepted, and grant funds may help those who qualify. Adolescents often use birth control to regulate cycles or manage acne, not just for pregnancy prevention.
Clinics at 110 North Burr Boulevard in Kewanee and 120 East Court Street in Toulon are open and serving the community by appointment only. Residents can schedule their visit by calling the nearest location: Kewanee at 309-852-5272 or Toulon at 309-852-3115. For additional information, scheduling, or updates on services, the clinics encourage people to visit www.henrystarkhealth.com. Updates and health tips can also be found by connecting through Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram with the Henry and Stark County Health Departments. Early registration is recommended, as appointments are required for all visits.
