Delaware County Health Department wellness line, clinics, vaccines, STI testing, TB care, permits, kiosks and vital-record routing
The Delaware County Health Department, also called DCHD, is the local public health agency for Delaware County, Pennsylvania. It helps residents with wellness resources, immunization clinics, sexual health services, TB clinics, environmental health, food permits, restaurant inspection reports, Test & Go kiosks, maternal and child health resources, open records and community health support.
This is not the state of Delaware health agency. It is also not the Pennsylvania Department of Health Vital Records office. If you need a Pennsylvania birth or death certificate, use the state Vital Records system instead of the county clinic route.

What this Delaware County health guide covers
Delaware County Health Department is not the Delaware state health agency
This guide is for Delaware County, Pennsylvania. It is not for the State of Delaware, and it is not a generic “Department of Health” page.
Use DCHD when you need local Delaware County public health services, clinics, food permits, restaurant inspections, Test & Go kiosks, wellness resources, STI testing, TB clinic routing, environmental health or county-held health records.
Use Pennsylvania Department of Health Vital Records when you need a certified Pennsylvania birth certificate or death certificate.

DCHD locations, hours and map
DCHD has multiple public-facing locations. Services are not identical at every address, so confirm the service before visiting.
Clinical services: vaccines, sexual health and TB care
DCHD Clinical Services includes immunization clinics, sexual health clinics and tuberculosis clinics. These services use specific schedules, locations and appointment rules.
The safest route is to call the Wellness Line at 484-276-2100 before going, especially when school deadlines, STI testing, TB testing or vaccine timing matters.
Immunization clinic hours and vaccine planning
The clinical services page lists immunization clinic hours by location. Chester is listed for select Mondays each month from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Yeadon is listed for Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, with after-hours appointment availability on select Wednesdays and Saturdays at certain times of the year.
| Location | Listed immunization schedule | Planning tip |
|---|---|---|
| Chester Wellness Center | Select Mondays each month, 10:00 AM-2:00 PM. | Call 484-276-2100 before visiting because “select Mondays” can change by month. |
| Yeadon Wellness Center | Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9:00 AM-3:00 PM. | Ask about after-hours availability if weekday daytime hours do not work. |
| Appointment support | Call 484-276-2100. | Bring vaccine records, ID, school forms and insurance or eligibility questions. |
Before an immunization visit
- Bring prior vaccine records and school, work, camp or childcare forms.
- Ask whether the needed vaccine is available that day.
- Ask whether your child or adult vaccine eligibility affects cost or appointment type.
- Do not wait until the last school deadline if a vaccine series or record correction is needed.
STI testing, HIV counseling and sexual health clinic hours
DCHD lists sexual health services including HIV counseling, testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections. Walk-ins are welcome and appointments are also available through 484-276-2100.
Prepare for confidential STI/HIV services
- Know the exposure date or symptom start date if applicable.
- Ask how results are delivered and how long results may take.
- Ask whether treatment is available on site or by referral.
- Use a phone number or email that is safe for private communication.
TB clinics and tuberculosis appointment help
DCHD lists tuberculosis testing and treatment as appointment-only services. TB clinics are connected to the Chester and Yeadon wellness centers, but users should not assume TB follows the same walk-in schedule as sexual health services.
Call first
Call 484-276-2100 and say whether you need a TB test for work/school, exposure follow-up or treatment support.
Ask about test type and return visit
Some TB testing can require a return reading or follow-up appointment. Ask before scheduling around work or school deadlines.
Bring forms and prior records
Bring work, school, healthcare-placement or immigration-related forms, prior TB results and any chest X-ray or treatment history if relevant.
Food licenses, permits, inspections and environmental health
DCHD Environmental Health handles licensing, permits and inspections for food and other regulated public-health settings. The official permit page recommends a fast digital method: complete payment online, then email the application and supporting documents to environmental@co.delaware.pa.us.
Documents must be attached as PDF files only. Photos of documents are not accepted. Mail or in-person submission is still listed, but cash is not accepted for mail or drop-off payment.
| Need | Official route | Important user tip |
|---|---|---|
| Food license or permit | Use DCHD Licensing, Permits & Inspections. | Pay online, then email PDF application materials and supporting documents. |
| Restaurant inspection report | Use the online report system where available. | Search by facility name and verify the latest inspection date. |
| Temporary food event | Follow the permit process before the event. | Do not wait until event week; missing PDFs or payment confirmation can delay approval. |
| Environmental office visit | Rosetree 1, 1400 N Providence Road, Suite 212, Media, PA 19063. | Business hours are listed Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM-4:30 PM. |
Test & Go kiosks, Narcan, STI/HIV tests and free public health supplies
DCHD’s Test & Go kiosks provide free public health resources. Official county information lists items such as Narcan, test strips, condoms, tampons or pads, first aid kits, STI/HIV tests, emergency mylar blankets, harm reduction kits, gunlocks, COVID-19 rapid tests, flu A/B tests, RSV tests and radon test kits.

Mental health resources, PA 211 and local health support
Delaware County health pages connect residents with broader community resources, including the Delaware County Health Resources Locator, PA Navigate, PA 211 and mental health support links.
Birth and death certificates are handled by Pennsylvania Vital Records
Do not use Delaware County Health Department clinic pages when your real need is a certified Pennsylvania birth certificate or death certificate.
The Pennsylvania Department of Health states that its Bureau of Health Statistics and Registries is the official custodian of vital records dating back to 1906 for Pennsylvania births, deaths and fetal deaths. Pennsylvania also notes that VitalChek is PA’s only authorized vendor for online birth certificate orders.

Open records, inspection records and health department document requests
If you need county-held records that are not already available online, use Delaware County’s open records process. For food inspection status, check online inspection tools first before filing a broad request.
How to make a stronger record request
- Search the public page or inspection-report tool first.
- Identify the exact record type: inspection report, permit record, health department correspondence, application status or other county-held record.
- Include the facility or business name if relevant.
- Add the address, date range, permit type and preferred format.
- Avoid broad wording like “send everything,” because narrow requests are easier to process.
