One-Stop Health Care for the Whole Family Comes to Branford
Local Health Care Leaders Collaborate to Bring Best in Practice Holistic Care to Shoreline Communities
Shoreline Family Health Care (SFHC), offering a whole-health approach for the whole family, is now open and welcoming new patients. SFHC offers medical and behavioral health services for patients of all ages, under one roof. Patients can select from either primary care or mental health services, or benefit from the seamless access of having both providers in one, convenient location. The facility also offers an on-site pharmacy and lab testing.
Located at 221 West Main Street, Branford, just over the East Haven line and across from Lake Saltonstall, SFHC is a unique collaboration between BHcare and Fair Haven Community Heath Care (FHCHC), two well-regarded health organizations in the Greater New Haven community. The collaboration integrates BHcare’s decades of behavioral health experience with FHCHC’s longstanding expertise in providing high quality primary medical care. In addition to offering primary care medical providers who can partner with you for many years, same day visits and urgent care appointments are also available.
“We’re excited to bring this new and innovative model of care to the Shoreline. Our goal is to provide the best care to the community by bringing the best teams together in one location,” said Roberta J. Cook, CEO/President, BHcare. “We will provide coordinated, comprehensive and seamless care for the whole family.”
