Women's Health Program Updates
As the needs in the community continue to change, we are adapting our Women's Health Program to better serve our female patients. Starting this month, we are changing the program structure. Instead of running the program twice each month, we will be running the Women's Health Program once a month for expanded hours.
The Women's Health Program will be offered on the 3rd Monday of the month from 1-5 PM. We know how important the pap smears, pelvic exams, and clinical breast exams are and want to continue to make them as accessible as possible, while meeting the needs of the community.
In addition to offering one-month supply of women's health products, Helping Hands Health and Wellness Center is seeking partnerships to provide even more personal care supplies to our female patients. We want them to feel special and cared for when they attend the Women's Health Program.
