Pandemic Response
Due to the unprecedented nature of the pandemic, we give charities such as this one the opportunity to share the story of COVID's impact on them. Charities may submit their own pandemic responses through their nonprofit portal.
Whole Family Health Center Inc. reported being impacted by COVID-19 in the following ways:
Program Delivery
Fundraising Capacity
Revenue
Staffing
Administrative Capacity
Balance Sheet
How COVID-19 impacted the organization's operations financially:
We have seen an influx of donations, mostly due to our massive COVID-19 vaccine efforts in our community. While the government has covered the cost of the vaccine and some treatments, the full costs of labor, including significant overtime, equipment, support accessories and everything else needed to perform this service have not been covered. The COVID-19 pandemic has directly affected our finances as an organization. We do expect increases in funds in our current FY (04/2021-03/2022) and next due to IRHD, LIP, and ARPA funding, as well as continued cash contributions due to our efforts in vaccinating and testing for COVID-19. We are also looking to enhance our fundraising efforts because of the goodwill we’ve earned in our community. We have surmised that the additional exposure within the community has also resulted in an over 40% increase in our patient count for 2021. In the future, we expect additional occupancy costs due to the expansion of both patients and services.
How COVID-19 impacted the organization's delivery of programs:
Whole Family Health Center quickly pivoted to offering telehealth appointments and pharmacy home delivery services/curbside pickup to better protect our patients, especially those that are immunocompromised. These services are offers that are still very popular with our patients and we will continue to offer them as well as expand moving forward. WFHC established itself as the go-to medical facility for COVID-19 testing, treatment, and vaccines. Upon the release of the vaccines, we met the community demand by hosting weekend vaccination effects that have become affectionately known as “vaccine parties”. To date, we have administered over 31,000 COVID-19 vaccines and over 20,000 tests. WFHC also partnered with the NIH & NIAID to conduct clinical trials for various treatment options, including monoclonal antibodies. This initiative made us the only dedicated monoclonal antibody treatment center in Vero Beach providing this lifesaving treatment to over 600 COVID-positive people.
How this organization adapted to changing conditions caused by COVID-19:
Dr. Gerald Pierone, Jr., our founder and Chief Medical Officer, is an infectious disease specialist, making him a valuable asset during the COVID-19 pandemic. We began by offering telehealth appointments to ensure that our patients, especially those that are immunocompromised, were protected. Our Social Services team began making weekly calls to our chronic care patients to ensure that they were maintaining access to services and medications that they needed. We quickly expanded access to testing within the community and partnered with NIH/NIAID to begin trials for therapeutic treatments. Our goal was to serve as many people in the community, while still offering the quality care that our patients have come to expect.
Innovations the organization intends to continue permanently after the pandemic:
As previously stated, we have received positive feedback regarding offering telehealth appointments and pharmacy home delivery services. It is our intent to continue to offer these services moving forward as well as potentially expand these services. Additionally, our Social Services team partnered with the Treasure Coast Food Bank to host a Diaper Pantry from each of our clinical offices. This service provides training, advocacy, and supplies to families with infant children in our community. We are excited to move into the second year of hosting this program. Our social services team has also taken the lead in critical care management. They are working with our patients to ensure they have access to complete care from WHFC as well as other local partner agencies.

Story of Adaptability
The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
The COVID-19 pandemic presented a multitude of challenges for both our staff and patients. Whole Family Health Center was able to quickly pivot to offering telehealth appointments to all clients. While many medical appointments have largely returned to in-person, we have had great feedback regarding our telehealth options and continue to offer them to our medical and behavioral health patients. This has improved access to care, especially mental health. It allows patients to be able to access services from the comfort of their home and with limited interruption to their daily schedule. We feel that this will have a long-term beneficial outcome for our patients. We also pivoted to offering pharmacy home delivery services and curbside pickup. During the pandemic this allowed us to keep our patients with a high risk of a negative outcome from COVID-19 infections safer from exposure. Along with telehealth options, this helps to ensure that our patients have access to their life-saving medications without interruption. We have found that this helps to ensure that patients are able to have their medication in a timely fashion and better adhere to taking their medications on time. WFHC established itself as the go-to medical facility for COVID-19 testing, treatment, and vaccines. We have administered over 31,000 COVID-19 vaccines and over 20,000 tests. WFHC also partnered with the NIH & NIAID to conduct clinical trials for various treatment options, including monoclonal antibodies.
