Covid-19 Vaccine – Get Yours!
The Covid-19 Vaccines have been proven to be safe and effective. More than 256 million doses have been administered and the number is growing day by day. With CDC guidelines permitting people with their vaccine to do more and visit more places, it’s never been a better time to get a vaccine.
The CDC has created a helpful tool to help people find a vaccine site near them. There are lots of options, people can simply type in their zip code and the tool will provide a list of nearby locations and how to schedule.
Please note the vaccines are 100% free regardless of insurance. Get yours today and do your part to put our community back on the path to a safe and open environment.
Help Us, Help Others, Help Yourself – Wear a Mask
Covid-19 is a real threat everyone is susceptible to contracting it, however by simply wearing a mask or other face-covering you can help prevent the spread of the virus. Covid-19’s symptoms can go under the radar and many people may not even know they have it, but if they wear a face-covering they can drastically reduce their likelihood of spreading it. Whenever someone comes to THS, they must wear a face-covering, this extends to Staff, Clients, or Visitors.
Please Note: This is not a request, we are all required by Washington State law to wear a mask.

Procedures for Protecting Health and Ensuring Safety
Therapeutic Health Services cares deeply about the health of our patients and of our community. We will be posting information as needed regarding any changes in program and service delivery at THS related to coronavirus (covid-19). Our goal is to keep our patients safe and provide the care they need. Please remember to visit our website’s News & Events page for updates. We will post on our website any changes to daily dosing or clinic operations.
Temperatures
All patients and staff must have their temperature checked upon entering the building. All individuals with a fever or other symptoms will be provided a mask and will receive their dose individually in an alternate office. If you feel sick in the morning before you come to the clinic, please call ahead and notify our staff so you can receive instructions for when you arrive at the clinic. We will make sure our staff are ready to receive you and ensure you get your medication safely. The branch phone numbers are listed here and on our Google Business listings.
Social Distancing
To protect everyone, all patients and staff are requested to observe a social distance of six feet. For patients in line waiting to receive medication, we have marked out the distance to stand apart on the floor at each of our locations.
Medication
In this uncertain and rapidly changing time, we want all of our medication-assisted treatment (MAT) patients to know that they will receive their medication. Our medical staff are evaluating patients for temporary or increased carries. Please follow any instructions given by nursing staff when you receive your medication.
