Child health clinic

Child health clinic services are intended for children under school age and their families. The services are intended for the inhabitants of the Siun sote area.

The customer relationship begins when the child turns two weeks old and continues until the child goes to school.

The child health clinic monitors the child's growth and development. The child receives the vaccinations included in the vaccination programme at the child health clinic. The child health clinic also provides support for matters related to parenthood and parents’ relationship.

Both parents are welcome to all maternity and child health clinic visits.

Contact information

Kitee health station

Your own health station will provide you with primary health care services. You can make a doctor's or nurse's appointment and receive other services at the health station. The health station is your primary place of receiving care, and you can be referred to further examinations and treatments.


If you need urgent care, for example due to an accident, you can also go directly to the emergency clinic at the Central Hospital. However, we recommend that you call your health station first. Health stations are closed in the evenings and on weekends. At these times, sudden illnesses and accidents are treated at the emergency clinic at the Central Hospital.

Available languages: Finnish, English.
