Clinical & family care

Reproductive health, prenatal support, STD care and child services

Pitt County Public Health’s clinic is built around prevention and early care rather than hospital-level treatment. Current county information includes reproductive health, prenatal support, sexual-health services, well-child care and specialty screenings.

Family planning

Confidential reproductive-health services can include contraceptive counseling, pregnancy planning and related preventive care.

Pregnancy support

The county provides referral pathways for prenatal care, childbirth education, nutrition, breastfeeding and pregnancy-support programs.

Preventive child health support can include health checks, vaccine review and developmental or wellness guidance.

Specialty screenings

The department lists screening services within its clinical-care program. Eligibility and fees depend on the specific program.

Emergency contraception

Pitt County directs current or transferring family-planning patients to call clinical staff about eligibility and timing rather than relying on an online assumption.

Dental program

Pitt County mobile dental clinic eligibility

The county operates a mobile dental program focused on children and qualifying pregnant patients. This is not a general adult dental clinic.

Children with NC Medicaid

Children ages 1-18 who have NC Medicaid and no dental home may qualify.

Septic & property

Before building, expanding or buying a septic property

Pitt County says on-site wastewater systems must meet North Carolina requirements and that review may be necessary before building, expanding or changing the way a property is used. Environmental Health and Permitting & Inspections coordinate parts of this process.

Start with the exact property

Have the street address, parcel information and proposed use ready. A bedroom addition, new home and commercial change of use can create different wastewater demands.

Ask whether you need an Improvement Permit

Site evaluation and Improvement Permit requirements can determine whether the proposed system and use are suitable for the property.

Coordinate construction authorization

Do not assume a building permit automatically covers the septic approval. Ask Environmental Health and Permitting which approvals must be completed first.

Wait for required inspections

Do not cover regulated wastewater work before the county-required inspection or authorization has been completed.

Property-buyer warning If the sale depends on septic capacity, do not rely only on a seller’s statement that the system “works.” Ask Pitt County what permit, evaluation, authorization or existing system record applies to the exact parcel.
Wrong-office prevention

Birth and death certificates come from the Pitt County Register of Deeds

The Pitt County Health Director serves as local registrar for births and deaths, but certified copies are obtained through the Pitt County Register of Deeds. That office is at 100 E. 1st Street in Greenville.

Certified birth certificate

The current Pitt County fee is $10 per certified copy.

Certified death certificate

The current county fee is also $10 per certified copy.

Identification

The Register of Deeds says a current photo ID, driver’s license or passport is required to obtain a birth certificate.

2026 adoption change Effective January 1, 2026, North Carolina Registers of Deeds can issue certified copies of adoptive birth certificates for people born in their county. Original pre-adoption certificates and associated adoption records remain sealed.
