N95 Mask Distribution
CHDC will be participating in the HRSA Health Center COVID-19 Mask Program. We are waiting for our shipment and are not yet distributing the N95 masks. We will update this page with more information; please check back often. No phone calls please.
COVID-19 Vaccines
CHDC is pleased to offer both Moderna and Pfizer Covid vaccines at our Coventry Mall location. We offer 1st, 2nd, 3rd and booster doses for patients 12 years and older. Boosters are available 5 months after the completion of your Covid vaccine series and your vaccination card is required upon scheduled appointment. To schedule an appointment, please email covidreg@ch-dc.org or call 484-941-9991.
In addition, CHDC offers Pfizer Pediatric Covid-19 vaccines for children ages 5-11 during a scheduled pediatric office visit. If the child is not a CHDC patient and but is interested in receiving a Covid vaccine, we periodically hold Covid-19 vaccine clinics at our Coventry Mall location. Your child will need to be registered for a clinic at our health center and an appointment will be made at that time. Stay tuned for announcements regarding upcoming pediatric vaccine clinics.
COVID-19 Testing
COVID testing is also available at our health center. To schedule a COVID test, call our health center at 610-326-9460.
Thank you,
CHDC Staff

On Friday, 2/5, CHDC staff celebrated Wear Red Day for American Heart Month! Whether in the office or working remotely, our staff is proud to show their support for women's heart health and raise awareness about cardiovascular disease.
Here at CHDC, we care for your heart by helping you manage risk factors for heart disease such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, inactivity, and more! The best way to fight heart disease is to have a healthy balanced diet, regular exercise, and make sure you’re getting regular check ups with your doctor.
Throughout the rest of the month, we will continue to provide educational resources for heart health. Be sure to keep up with us on social media to stay in the loop! If you want to get a head start on learning about heart health, check out the American Heart Association: https://www.heart.org/

Health Awareness Events in February
Throughout the month of February, we are highlighting:
- American Heart Month
- Children's Dental Health Month
These awareness months encourage us to take the time to learn more about various health causes. Click the links to learn more and spread the word!

Focusing on your heart health has never been more important. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. But you can do a lot to protect your heart. Self-care is heart-health care. Practicing self-care can keep our hearts healthy. Being physically active, eating healthier foods, getting enough sleep, not smoking, and finding healthy ways to reduce stress can help prevent heart disease. And, when we take care of our hearts, we set an example for those around us to do the same. |
|
Each February, the American Dental Association (ADA) sponsors National Children's Dental Health Month to raise awareness about the importance of oral health. Developing good habits at an early age and scheduling regular dental visits helps children to get a good start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums. We want to encourage healthy habits from a young age, such as brushing, flossing, eating healthy snacks, and having routine dental visits. |
