Meet Maria.
She’s a single mother and works two jobs. Putting food on the table, keeping a roof over their heads, creating a better life for her child and surviving the stress and uncertainty of the COVID-19 Pandemic have been all consuming for Maria. Unfortunately, her health wasn’t a priority until she came to Health Partnership Clinic.
After undergoing tests, Maria soon discovered she had high blood pressure—which left undiagnosed, this “silent killer” could lead to heart disease, heart failure or stroke. Maria is not alone. Nearly 76 percent of our patients have one or more chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease and depression and have missed important screenings and routine care during the pandemic. Thanks to our dedicated team, Maria is putting her health first and feeling better.
Compounding the problem, many high-risk patients are uninsured or underinsured. Now, more than ever, your help is needed! Access to quality health care improves well-being and saves lives. Your gift today will provide comprehensive and continuous care to our patients, like Maria, who suffer with chronic diseases and help prevent illnesses, other health problems or detect early-stage diseases.
Thank you for giving! Your gift today will give people access to:
- Routine and chronic care for uninsured or underinsured families.
- Dental care for children.
- Substance abuse treatment.
- Behavioral health assessments and interventions.
