The Shepherd's Hands outreach clinic originally scheduled for Oct. 1 has been cancelled in anticipation of effects from the current tropical weather system. The medical staff and volunteers plan to resume their regular, monthly clinic on Tuesday, Nov. 5, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Christ Episcopal Church on Cherry Street in Monticello.
This clinic is an outreach ministry of Shepherd’s Hands of the Suwannee Valley, Inc., of the Episcopal Diocese of Florida. Services are provided to all who qualify and are in need. These can include medical examinations based on the particular problems of the individual, testing for diabetes, urinalysis, screening for eye problems and an EKG unit for heart monitoring.
Look for notices in the newspaper in late October for information about the Nov. 5 clinic.
