Article via the Hub Springfield: Minority healthcare disparities are not only a pandemic issue

Minority healthcare as it relates to the COVID-19 pandemic and vaccine has been a topic of conversation recently because of the higher numbers of minorities getting the virus but the lower numbers of minorities getting the vaccine.

Beginning the week of December 7th, we will not be doing any COVID Drive-Thru clinics.

During the COVID 19 pandemic, we are all spending at least a little more time with our families, which can be a great time to grow closer! But it can also create more situations for family arguments and irritations. Here are some tips from your Rocking Horse Behavioral Health Department to cope with these changes. 

Knowing that this can be a very scary time for many needing healthcare, we are now able to offer services by way of several different service modalities including telehealth medicine, curbside visits, and in-office visits.

We want to ensure that patients are able to receive services (including well check visits, immunizations, and chronic care management) in the safest way possible. .

Ensuring that your child is up to date on immunizations, is especially important during a Pandemic. For more information or to schedule an appointment, please call our office at (937) 324-1111.
Continue to check our website and Facebook page for updates regarding more offerings to come.
