Patient Appreciation Day: Our Family, Your Stories

On August 5, we celebrate patients as partners in care National Health Center Week. Here in Lawrence County:

  • Maria in Chesapeake overcame care gaps with our integrated Behavioral Health team.

  • Mr. Jenkins in Proctorville manages diabetes via telehealth—saving him a 60-mile round trip.

  • The Patel family at Rock Hill found affordable dental care for their children.

Why Policy Matters Locally
Your experiences underscore the need for:

  • Long-term appropriations so FMC sliding-scale fees remain stable.

  • 340B safeguards to keep prescriptions affordable for families on Medicaid (50% of our patients) Family Medical Centers.

Thank you for letting us serve you, Lawrence County.
