Such healthcare issues as domestic violence, alco- hol/drug abuse, low income, no medical insurance, transporta tion, long-term health care, home health and hospice and more, can be alleviated through our clinic’s Social Work Care Manager, Sharon Farber, M.S.W. She will be in Vernonia on Thursdays from 10:00 until 4:00. She is also available on other days, Monday through Friday, as needed. To access her services, patients need to get in touch with their care provider. The idea behind this service is to assist providers in accessing and coordinating help for situations that might “get in the way” of adequate health care. If you have questions or concerns about this new service, please call either Dr. Livingston or Laura Nichols, P.A. at 429-9191 for more information. Thank-you note from Tana: “I would like to thank our patients for responding to our request regarding prescription pickup at the clinic. Things are a lot less hectic now, and very few prescriptions have to be returned. We appreciate your help in making this drug delivery system work— it has been very nice. Once again, thank you." Next Mammovan visit is April 12. Call Tana at 429-9191 for an appointment.
