Park City, Coalville and Kamas health services, phones, WIC, records and environmental help

On the Wasatch Back, “the health department” can mean very different things depending on what you need.

The quickest route is to choose the service first and then call the office that actually handles it. Park City and Coalville have broader Monday-through-Thursday clinic schedules, while Kamas has a more limited in-person clinic schedule.

Programs & services

Vaccines & clinical care

Immunizations, reproductive health and clinical services

Summit County Public Health Nurses provide immunizations for children, teens and adults. The department says free or low-cost vaccine options may be available to people who qualify, while insurance coverage depends on the plan and vaccine.

Child and teen vaccines

Routine immunization schedules, school-related vaccination needs and Vaccines for Children-type assistance are part of local public-health clinical work.

Adult vaccines

Adults can contact the nearest Health Department location to ask about vaccine availability, cost and insurance acceptance.

Official vaccine records

You can request a vaccine-record copy at a Health Department location. SCHD notes that an official copy may carry a small fee.

Insurance and payment questions

SCHD publishes a changing list of insurance plans accepted for vaccines and currently states that it does not accept Cigna plans. Because participation can change, call the location before the appointment rather than relying on an older insurance list.

Women’s and reproductive health

Clinical Services includes contraception and family-planning support as well as breast and cervical cancer screening programs for qualifying residents. Some services are income-based, and eligible participants may receive screening without charge.

Call before coming in for a specific shot Vaccine inventory, seasonal clinics, insurance billing and eligibility can change. Tell staff the vaccine, patient age and insurance plan when you call.
WIC

Summit County WIC phone, appointment hours and walk-in locations

For Summit County WIC, call or text 435-333-1515. WIC staff are available by phone, text and email Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. In-person appointments are preferred even on days when walk-ins are offered.

WIC location In-person schedule listed by SCHD Important note
Park City Monday, Tuesday and Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Closed the first Monday-Friday of the month and the last Friday of the month.
Kamas First Monday and first Thursday of the month, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Appointments are preferred.
Coalville First Tuesday and first Friday of the month, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Call or text before driving in.
WIC first step If you think you may qualify, call or text 435-333-1515 before gathering paperwork. Staff can tell you what eligibility information and documents apply to your household and schedule.
Birth & death certificates

Utah birth and death certificates through Summit County Health Department

SCHD can issue qualifying Utah birth and death certificates. These are vital records, not medical charts. In-person requests require valid identification, and staff may ask for documents proving your relationship to the person named on a restricted record.

Birth certificate

Current listed cost is $22 for the first certificate and $10 for each additional copy ordered at the same time. Utah birth certificates dating from 1905 are available through the system, subject to access rules.

Death certificate

Current listed cost is $30 for the first certificate and $10 for each additional copy ordered at the same time.

ID and relationship requirements

Acceptable primary identification includes documents such as a photo driver license, state photo ID, passport, military ID, tribal ID or permanent resident card. If you cannot provide an accepted primary ID, SCHD lists combinations of secondary documents that may be considered.

Immediate family members may need to show a chain of records proving the relationship—for example, birth or marriage certificates connecting the requester to the person named on the record.

Timing and appointments

Certificates can only be processed before 4:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday. Call Park City, Coalville or Kamas to schedule an in-person appointment rather than arriving close to the cutoff.

Historical-record distinction SCHD says birth certificates become public records after 100 years and death certificates after 50 years. More recent certificates remain subject to eligibility and identification rules.
Environmental Health

Food permits, water safety, pools, septic and environmental complaints

Environmental Health protects drinking water, oversees onsite wastewater systems, works with food establishments, regulates several public-health permits and investigates complaints that could affect human health or the environment.

Food establishments

Restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, school kitchens, temporary events and other public food operations require permits and inspections when applicable.

Water

Programs include drinking-water safety, water testing, suspected water-related illness investigation, water concurrency and pool/spa oversight.

Wastewater

Environmental Health reviews onsite septic designs, evaluates sites, issues permits and performs installation inspections.

Permit and food questions Current Environmental Health permit/food contact listed by SCHD: 435-333-1502.

Septic & wastewater

New septic permits, inspections and failed systems in Summit County

Anyone building on property served by onsite wastewater should deal with the septic process early. SCHD reviews soils, system designs, water-supply documentation and site details before an onsite wastewater permit is approved.

Prepare the site information

The application asks for owner contact information, physical address, parcel ID, lot size, contractor information and septic designer information.

Include technical documents

Submit percolation results, septic-system design, house plans, house square footage and required water-supply documentation.

Wait for permit review

SCHD reviews the wastewater design and either approves or denies the application. An approved onsite wastewater permit becomes part of the documentation needed for the building-permit process.

Install to the approved design

The system must match the approved plans and specifications. Changes should not be made informally in the field.

Schedule inspection before backfill

The property owner or installer must contact the Health Department about 48 hours before backfilling so staff can complete the final inspection while the system is still visible.

Permit life SCHD currently states that onsite wastewater permits are valid for one year from the issue date. A permit can be renewed for a listed $25 renewal fee so the design can be checked against current code.
Failed septic system? Sewage surfacing on the ground, backups or other signs of failure should not be ignored. SCHD asks property owners to contact the septic program at 435-336-3224 for guidance.
Food businesses

Restaurant permits, food inspections and food-handler requirements

Food businesses that serve or sell food to the public must obtain the applicable Summit County Health Department permit and undergo inspection. That includes restaurants, coffee shops, delis, grocery stores, school kitchens, food trucks and many temporary-event operations.

Submit plans before opening

New establishments must complete the applicable review process. Pre-opening inspections are not performed before required plan-review approval.

Apply and pay for the annual permit

The yearly establishment permit must be applied for and paid before the pre-opening inspection.

Have food-manager certification ready

SCHD requires a copy of the food-safety manager certification for permit approval; a payment receipt for a class is not a substitute for the certification.

Make sure employees have Utah food-handler permits

Food employees must complete approved food-handler training and obtain the required Utah permit.

Complete the pre-opening inspection

Health approval is part of the business-licensing process, and food supplies should not be delivered before the required pre-opening inspection is completed.

Food-safety complaint SCHD lists 435-333-1502 and summitenviro@summitcountyutah.gov for potential food-safety violations and Environmental Health questions.
Home-based help

Homebound vaccines and newborn family support

For residents who cannot safely leave home because of a physical, safety or mental-health barrier, SCHD has a screening-based Homebound Program. Qualified residents may receive selected immunizations such as flu or COVID vaccines through a mobile clinic visit.

The same public-health nursing route also supports Targeted Case Management for eligible newborn children on Medicaid. Staff can assess family needs and connect parents with appropriate county resources.

Home-visit screening line Call 435-333-1531 if you, a patient or a family member may qualify. Eligibility is determined through screening rather than simply requesting a home appointment.
Current health notice

Measles symptoms: call before walking into a healthcare facility

On the date this guide was reviewed, Summit County Health Department’s homepage carried a measles advisory telling people with fever and a rash beginning on the face not to walk into a healthcare facility without calling first. The department links residents to virtual medical guidance and current measles information.

This alert can change Public-health advisories are time-sensitive. Check the official Summit County Health Department homepage for the latest measles, outbreak and emergency guidance before relying on an older article.
