CPSP Provider Trainings
LA County is now opening registration for our 2017 trainings!
Once a month we will be having a training from 8:30am to 4:00pm at
the California Endowment in Downtown Los Angeles (conveniently
located located one block from Union Station via the Red or Gold
Line).
The training will include an overview of the CPSP program for new
staff, as well as updates for staff who want to learn about LA
County's new forms and current resources.
The training and parking are free!
Registration information for 2017 will be distributed per our CPSP
provider email list.
Zika Virus Update
Zika is a mosquito-borne virus. In Brazil,
the site of a large ongoing Zika outbreak, there has been a
substantial increase in the number of babies born with microcephaly
(small head circumference). Please click here
for important information for obstetric
providers and pregnant women.
Pertussis
(Whooping Cough)
Pertussis is on the rise. We strongly recommend that CPSP providers
offer/refer pregnant patients for Tdap during 3rd trimester to
protect newborns from pertussis. Visit
CPSP website or to learn more about what your office can do to
prevent pertussis.
