       or leave a message on the "contact us" page of this website. 
Someone will contact you for information and to set up an appointment. 
NOTE: the temporary location will only take non emergency patients between the ages of 19 through 64 without insurance.  As time and resources allow, we will increase the number of open clinic hours and expand our services to those who have limited insurance, particularly those who do not have office visit coverage.

 
The mission of FernCare is to provide no-cost medical care to the medically uninsured or under-insured residents of the area. We define under-insured as those who do not have office visit coverage as part of their insurance policies. The purpose is limited to those activities that are permissible for a 501 (c) (3) tax exempt organization as specified by the Internal Revenue Code.

The clinic will treat persons from 19 through 64 years of age. It will provide primarily non-emergency maintenance care of chronic illness, do checkups, diagnose and treat acute day-to-day illness, dispense generic medications, and make specialist referrals for obstetric, dental care and sexually transmitted disease treatment and other care beyond our scope of service. The pharmacy will not stock any controlled drugs, narcotics or any highly addictive drug of any sort. 

We can’t hope to offer this needed service without volunteers. All free clinics are staffed by people who volunteer. There are state and Federal government legal protections for medical staff that volunteer. 
The clinic we envision would probably be open once or twice a week to start, expanding as we see the need and have the volunteers to do so.
