On Friday, we celebrated Karen Van Fleet's retirement from Jackson County Public Health.

Karen brought a dedicated spirit and great sense of humor to her 13 years in epidemiology with JCPH, and 44 years in nursing. We were honored to celebrate this special day with her family, alongside current and former staff members. Several attendees spoke warmly of Karen's knowledge, thoughtful support, and calm presence that defined her contributions to public health.

Join us in thanking Karen Van Fleet for her years of service at JCPH and beyond. Congratulations on your retirement!

Yes, you can get your flu shot and give blood on the same day.

Receiving the flu shot causes no wait period to donate blood and does not affect eligibility. As long as you are feeling well and symptom-free at your appointment, you can donate blood. This October, join us for a community blood drive at JCPH. Sign up to get your flu shot, too!

What if we told you that knowing your status brings some relief, even if you test positive? We hear it all the time! Our nurses recommend the next steps that are best for your health, including treatment. Many STIs are treatable when you catch them early.
