Fire station to add health facility

California town will incorporate healthcare facility within new fire station


The city of Hayward, Calif., will incorporate a healthcare facility within its new fire station, according to an article on the Livability.com website.

The Firehouse Clinic is a collaboration between the Hayward Fire Department, Tibercio Vasquez Health Center, Acute Care Hospitals and Alameda County Health Care Service Agency’s Emergency Medical Services Division.
