Brevard County Health Services Guide

The Florida Department of Health in Brevard County (DOH-Brevard) has its headquarters in Viera and clinics in Melbourne and Titusville, open on weekdays only (DOH-Brevard).

The Viera Administrative Headquarters is at 2565 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Viera, FL 32940, and answers at 321-454-7111 (Viera page). Its hours run Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with the building closed on weekends (Viera page). Birth and death certificates and school health are the two services posted for the Viera building, and the epidemiology desk there answers at 321-454-7101 (Viera page).

South Brevard residents use the Melbourne clinic, 601 E. University Blvd., Melbourne, FL 32901, phone 321-726-2920; its service list covers family planning, immunizations, STI services and WIC, and its doors open on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. (clinic page). North Brevard residents use the Titusville clinic, 611 North Singleton Avenue, Titusville, FL 32796, phone 321-383-2795, where school health joins those services (north county clinic page). One number books appointments at both clinics: 321-637-7300 (clinic page).

A scheduling detail that trips up Brevard families: the immunization window at both clinics closes at 4 p.m., an hour before the clinic doors, and the teen clinic runs only on Tuesday afternoons, from 1 p.m. in Melbourne and from 2 p.m. in Titusville (Melbourne clinic; Titusville clinic).

Each certified Florida birth or death certificate costs $12.00 from the Brevard vital records office in Viera, which takes orders at the counter, through the mail or by fax (DOH-Brevard birth certificates).

The Brevard County office holds Florida birth records from 1930 forward; anything older must be ordered through the Jacksonville office (certificate page). Death records cover Florida deaths from 2009 through the current year, priced the same (DOH-Brevard death certificates).

Counter service in Viera follows the headquarters schedule, weekdays until 4:30 p.m., and every applicant shows a valid photo ID (certificate page). Mailed requests go to the Viera headquarters address marked for Vital Statistics, include a photocopy of the requester's ID, and carry $2.00 extra for postage and handling (certificate page). Faxed requests paid with a Visa or MasterCard add a $10.00 processing fee, orders are processed within one business day, and an $18.00 UPS option speeds delivery; certificates are never returned by fax (certificate page). The Brevard Office of Vital Statistics phone is 321-454-7163 (certificate page).

Neither the Melbourne nor the Titusville clinic lists birth and death certificates among its services; the Viera headquarters is the location that lists them (Melbourne clinic; Viera).

Brevard County WIC is open to pregnant or breastfeeding women, women who have recently been pregnant, infants and children under 5 in low or moderate income households with a nutrition risk (Brevard WIC page).

The DOH-Brevard WIC page sets the income limit by household size: a household of one qualifies at up to $29,526 a year, a household of four at up to $61,050 a year or $5,088 a month, and a pregnancy adds one person per expected baby (Brevard WIC page). A Brevard family already enrolled in Medicaid, food assistance or temporary cash help meets the income test automatically (Brevard WIC page). The table on the Brevard page carries the revision date June 26, 2026, and notes the amounts may rise each year (Brevard WIC page).

Certification appointments go through the Brevard WIC Office Appointment Line at 321-639-5793 (Brevard WIC page). WIC is offered at both the Melbourne clinic on University Blvd. and the Titusville clinic on Singleton Avenue during weekday hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (Melbourne clinic; Titusville clinic).

Low-income uninsured adults who live in Brevard County can apply for the PATH clinic, a primary care program housed in the DOH-Brevard Viera clinic (PATH page).

PATH (Primary Access to Health) is run jointly by the Brevard County Commission, DOH-Brevard and Space Coast Volunteers in Medicine, with volunteer nurses and clerks working beside a primary care physician (PATH page). Care requires an appointment and an eligibility review; applicants must live in Brevard County and earn under 300 percent of federal poverty guidelines, among other conditions (PATH page). The PATH and Space Coast Volunteers in Medicine number in Viera is 321-639-5813 (DOH-Brevard clinic directory).

The PATH page is explicit about limits: the PATH clinic does not provide emergency services, specialty care or special diagnostic tests such as an MRI or CT scan (PATH page).

Septic permits and inspections in Brevard County still come from DOH-Brevard, although state septic rule enforcement moved to the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) on July 1, 2021 (septic page).

Program questions go to DEP at [email protected], while permit applications and inspections stay with the Brevard office, which takes septic applications at [email protected] (septic page; DOH-Brevard environmental health). Beginning July 1, 2022, Brevard owners (or their authorized contractors) gained the option of a private inspector for septic work (septic page). A septic plan review for an accessory structure such as a shed, pool or fence costs $30, and it needs a site plan or survey drawn to scale showing the existing tank and drainfield (septic page).

Wells narrower than six inches are permitted by DOH-Brevard under a delegation from the St. Johns River Water Management District and the county, and the application comes from a Florida licensed water well contractor using the district ePermit portal (well page). Wells six inches or larger, and all wells within a Chapter 62-524 delineated area, are permitted by the water management district directly (well page).

Other DOH-Brevard environmental health desks cover pools and spas, tattooing, tanning and mobile home and RV parks, and the page lists a mosquito prevention line for Brevard at 321-264-5032 (DOH-Brevard environmental health). The DOH-Brevard emergency preparedness page lists special needs shelters among its topics and an Emergency Preparedness line at 321-690-6488 (DOH-Brevard preparedness).
