There are a lot of headlines about what’s going wrong with health care and how people are confused by all the changes that are happening with Obamacare. For instance, few might be aware that there are now more options for affordable primary health care for working families at Greater Prince William Community Health Center. Now more people – whether they have insurance or not – can go to a health care home where all their preventive health needs are met.
Health Center patients are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of income. We are a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that provides primary, prenatal, dental, and behavioral health services under one roof for the whole family. We also offer the innovative CenteringPregnancy® model for prenatal care.
We are celebrating National Health Care Week August 13, 14, and 15. Everyone is invited to join us each day from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 4379 Ridgewood Center Drive in Woodbridge. We will have free health screenings, free lunch, free patient education, free tours, free children’s activities and free on-site Medicaid enrollment, as well as free car seats to qualifying patients and scheduled mammograms for patients through Sentara’s Digital Mammography Van.
