Improve and expand healthcare services to meet anticipated increased demand. The aforementioned climate-induced health risks are expected to increase demand for healthcare services, adding additional stress to already overburdened providers. The Lummi Health Clinic provides many health services to Lummi tribal members and other American Indians and Alaska Natives, including medical, dental, mental, and public health services. There is a recognized need to improve and expand these services and the clinic is currently developing or planning several projects to strengthen patient care services for community members (e.g., establishing a Community Medicine Department, increasing the number of exam rooms, increasing the number of providers, providing physical therapy, expanding preventative healthcare services). These and similar improvements are recommended to increase the capacity of the clinic to serve the Lummi People and improve the provision of essential healthcare services.
