The Behavioral Health Program model currently in use at WeCare allows for both self- and provider-referral of patients. When a patient self-refers, s/he makes an appointment with a Behavioral Health Provider on his or her own by contacting the front desk. We are now offering Behavioral Health services at our Scotia Bluffs and Mad River facilities.

The patient may schedule an appointment with a Licensed Clinician to explore mental health issues, or with a Behavioral Health Provider such as a social worker to explore social services or other relevant issues. In addition, Behavioral Health Providers may also accept patients on a “walk-in” basis as time permits, after the patient has checked in with the front desk.

WeCare is pleased to have Peter Heck on staff to assist with your behavioral health needs!

WeCare purchased Dr Carlins private practice in Weaverville Jan 2019. This expanded dental care opportunities for people in Trinity County & outlying counties, allowing for patients with any dental insurance coverage or paying cash to receive dental care. We also offer sliding fee scale which really helps a lot of people to better afford care. In 2020 we introduced the dental portion of our practice in Scotia and have been building a strong team of individuals. In Mad River we have been serving our community in need of dental care for more than a decade and have deep roots within the community that all began with STAR.

WeCare began offering primary care in 1979. The organization was created to provide organizational framework for our volunteer ambulance service, STAR (Southern Trinity Area Rescue). However, since that time our primary care clinics have crown from a small travel trailer in the back of Southern Trinity high school to not one but two freestanding clinics. One in Mad River and the other in Scotia California. Our Mad River and Scotia clinics are staffed with people who live in the community who understand the wonderful life of living in a rural community.
