Pathway Beckley


Recommended Posts

This post refers to the free medical/dental clinic that happened in Beckley, WV July 13-15 that I posted about earlier to encourage folks to come if they lived nearby.

 

DH, DD1 and I just got home from Pathway Beckley last night about 10 pm, after nine days in WV. What an awesome experience. DD and I worked in Central Supply and DH ended up in Venue Services so we didn't have much direct contact with patients. Long hours every day. One night we got back to the friends' where we were staying at 11 pm only to have to get up at 2:30 am and go back to the Convention Center. Here are some stats of the event.

 

734 volunteers (one lady drove from Mexico to volunteer, one flew from Bermuda)

1722 patients seen (Wed-Fri afternoon)

Services offered-podiatry, dental, primary care, surgery, radiology, lab services, vision care (including glasses), hydrotherapy, massage, barber/beauty salon, mental health, lifestyle counseling, chaplaincy, women's health, pharmacy.

Value of services- $6,543,660.00
Value of medicines- $50,000

How people found out-
#1 friend or family member
#2 Facebook

 

The next several Pathway to Health events will be on the East Coast. They are researching several cities now and will decide before spring.
