Sahdev Passey 10/24/2005
The Indian Medical Association of New England, along with the India
Society of Worcester, proudly announces the opening of Free Health
Stop. It will be located at the India Center, 152 West Main
Street, Shrewsbury MA. This program will provide the needed
health care for the under served and uninsured in our community. It
will serve everyone and is not limited to the Indian Community.
We opened our doors on Wednesday, October 12, 2005 and it will be open
every Wednesday of the month from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Every week we
plan to provide acute care for non emergency medical problems,
information on health issues and different issues related to diet. We
also plan to have consultations with medical sub specialists, bone
marrow density and issues related to dental care available once a month.
There will be no charge for the services provided at the facility.
Anyone who wishes to take advantage of our services is welcome
irrespective of their financial, immigration and insurance status. We
will try our best to make arrangements for people by referring to
outside facilities for continual long-term care for chronic medical
conditions. This program is made possible with the
support of our volunteer physicians; social workers, dieticians and
members of the India Society of Worcester who will help us staff the
facility. We are looking for Physicians, Social workers,
Dieticians, Mental Health Workers and any other medically related
service providers to join us in this venture. We will not dispense any
narcotics at this facility and our facility will be closed on days when
the Worcester Public Schools are closed because of a snow day.
