More than 7,100 households in EVHMC's five-city primary service area are categorized as living under the poverty level, and EVHMC plays a crucial role in meeting the needs of this underserved population. All patients are provided with the highest quality medical care, regardless of their ability to pay. The "Babies Are Special" program combines prenatal care for mothers-to-be, including teens within the school district and Medi-Cal patients, with education on topics such as breast feeding, infant care and safety, and parenting. The hospital also participates in the health fairs in the communities they serve providing screenings, flu shots, and education materials.
