Located to the northwest of Los Angeles County, lies Chino Hills. As recent as 2016 the city was ranked 7th safest overall in the U.S.A. Safe from crime, however, unfortunately, doesn’t equal safe from sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
In 2017, the San Bernardino County Department of Public Health called for community support in raising STD awareness. Their plan is to start a task force aimed at increasing the number of people getting screened for preventable diseases (HIV, STIs, etc.).
San Bernardino Public Health officials are encouraging all sexually active residents of the Chino Hills area to get tested and keep California healthy.
San Bernardino County reported large increases in both gonorrhea and chlamydia back in 2016. With 60 percent of all new STDs coming from teens and young adults (aged 15-24). After a quiet year of no newly reported cases of congenital syphilis in 2011, that number jumped to 20 in 2016 and continues to rise. Pregnant women with untreated infections risk their infants being born prematurely or worse—stillborn. Congenital syphilis should be completely preventable, it’s important to get tested at least once a year for STDs. Yes, even if you have no symptoms.
If you need to get tested in the Chino Hills area and are looking for cheap, affordable, or even potentially free STD testing options, here are a few suggestions. Total Care, a walk-in clinic on Roswell Avenue, provides STI testing and treatment. No appointment necessary, but you can call ahead to discuss your payment options. Otherwise, you can check out a confidential STD testing center close by over on Diamond Bar Boulevard.
To find the best services and location for you, use our search tools below to compare location features across Chino Hills clinics with our easy-to-read chart.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention1 (CDC) recommends screening for the most common STDs, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, herpes 1, herpes 2, and HIV for both men and women. In addition, the CDC suggests women get screened for trichomoniasis.
SaferSTD recommends searching for locations that offer a 10-test panel which tests for the most common bacteria and viral STDs in the U.S. with additional premium add-ons like early HIV detection, if needed.
The CDC2 provides detailed STD testing information as to when you should get tested. In summary, you should get tested today if you are sexually active, never been tested before, have had unprotected sex in the past, or if you exhibit symptoms.
According to the World Health Organization3, the majority of STI cases reported every day, more than one million, are asymptomatic; another reason to get tested today.
You should get tested again in 90 days to rule out STDs that have specific exposure waiting times, including HIV.
STD testing can be a quick and simple process, depending on the type of test you choose and where you get tested. Some may require an oral or genital swab, a urine test or blood sample, or a physical exam to check your genital area for signs of an STD.
SaferSTD has identified preferred providers that require only a urine test, a blood sample, or both without a physical exam.
The speed at which you receive your STD testing results depends on where you get tested. Before you choose your location, find out how long testing results will take.
At-home STD testing results are usually 3-5 business days, depending on the manufacturer of your test. You also need to take into account the amount of time it takes to receive the test or pick one up, perform the test, and ship it back, before the lab can analyze your results and report back to you.
If you test at a public facility such as a neighborhood clinic, you may have to wait a week, if not more for the results, which could delay treatment. If you test through a private facility, they have the fastest turnaround within 1-3 business days.

With the alarming number of new STD infections in Chino hills and considering the upsurging population in the city of more than 80, 000 people, the county Department of Health working together with the State’s Department of Health have established programs to offer sex education to the population.
With an esteemed support from parents board and non governmental bodies, most schools are pushing for the introduction of comprehensive sexual education into their curriculum. Since the early 1990s, schools only taught abstinence only as the only means of preventing unwanted pregnancies, HIV/AIDS and other STDs. With the increasing number of STD infections, the society has turned to educate the youth along with the locals on the need for testing and ways of saying no to sex adventures.
Parents have also been encouraged to discuss sex matters with their children. This aims at equipping the youth with the right knowledge for them to make informed sex decisions. The state has proposed a legislation for the introduction of age appropriate and medically accurate comprehensive sexual education to be introduced in the curriculum for grades 7 through 12. With such an initiative, many youths would be able to understand preventive and contraceptive measures. The CDC along with the state have recommended that all females under the age of 25 years and all females who have multiple sex partners in Bernadino County should undergo regular CHlamydia check up.
The county has also recommended that anyone between the age of 15-64 years should be tested at least once in a year. The GYT movement (Get yourself tested) has had a great impact in educating the locals on the need for getting tested and treated if diagnosed. They also offer contraceptive use education along with condom use modalities to the youth.
Universities and colleges in Chino city have also established outreach programs to sensitize the locals on the importance of condom use as a contraceptive and STD prevention measure. Reaching out a big number is their focus and enlightening them on the advantages of safe sex.
Demographics has had a great influence on the alarming increase in STD infection in Chino hills. With a staggering population of more than 80,000 people, the County Department of Health has limited resources for testing and treating STDs.
Lack of a well developed curriculum for comprehensive sexual education has been a great barrier in the fight against the spread of STDs in Chino. With most parents not willing to allow their children to take sexual classes, many students lack sexual knowledge for making informed sex decisions. Employing the abstinence only as the only means of STD protection and contraceptive method has been proved unfruitful.
With a 11% of the households in the county living below the average poverty level, they cannot afford for their basic needs and afford regular STD check ups. This has been a great setback for the county in fighting STDs.
Increased drug use in the city has also been an influencing factor in the spread of STDs in the city. With the elite class being the providers of the drugs while most drug users living below the poverty level, this creates a disparity in finances and to finance the drugs, some offer sex favours instead. This has made the rates for STD infection escalate rapidly over the years.
Increase in social crimes in the city has also impacted the growth of STDs. Crimes like prostitution and stripping in modern clubs are some of the attributes that escalate infection rates. With most of the below poverty level households seeking any available jobs, they are vulnerable to STD infection.
Unemployment has also been increasing slightly in the city considering that the city and its suburbs has many colleges and Universities that offer personnel on regular basis in the market. This causes despair among the unemployed and hence end up in drug abuse, which results in ignorance and change of behavior. However, the outreach programs organized by Universities and other bodies have been progressive in the fight against STDs. The advance in technology and the increased use of social media has greatly helped fast distribution of sex education.
With statistics showing that the fight against STDs in Chino city has been stagnant over time, the County Health Department along with the State’s Health Department have joined hands to expand the STD testing facilities in the city. Lack of sex education has been one of the most detrimental effects in the fight against STDs but the Health community has put in place policies to beef up sex education across the county. Public and private health facilities, Urgent Cares and Planned Parenthood Centers are all working together to reduce the rate of STD infection in the Chino city.
Pomona Valley Health center is one of the public health facilities within Chino Hills city. It offers free HIV/AIDS testing services.

Chino hills is one of the most rapidly growing cities in Los Angeles. With the upsurge of the population hitting above the excesses of 70,000, the city has been a stable commercial hub. Due to the mix of different cultures with different values and norms among other reasons including lack of sexual education, STD infection rates have been increasing at an alarming rate.
The county government along with the State’s Health Department are jointly working together on policies that would help sensitize the locals on the need for STD testing and importance of comprehensive sexual education. They are gradually introducing the comprehensive sexual education in middle and high schools. Outreach programs and other organisations are also working on educating the locals on sex education to help them make informed sex decisions. All health facilities within the city also offer sex education along with contraception, prevention and treatment.
