FEEDBACK FROM OUR PATIENTS
|
|
|
We always appreciate hearing from our patients. Recently we received feedback from a new patient on her first visit to MCHC.
"I just wanted to send over another thank you. I met with your team yesterday and everyone was very friendly, professional, and answered every question I had. You truly have a fantastic team at MCHC. I appreciate it!"
We always strive to provide the highest quality of care to all our patients with compassion and understanding.

EVENTS AT MANCHESTER COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER
|
|
|
STAFF AND PATIENT FLU CLINICS
|
|
We kicked off this year's flu season with an organization-wide flu clinic. Our vaccination team visited all four MCHC sites to ensure employees received their flu shot.
The
Center for Disease Control
kicked off its annual flu campaign on September 28th. MCHC is making sure all patients have access to this important vaccine, by offering flu clinics at all four MCHC locations through the end of the year. Flu clinics are operating during the week and on the weekend to make the vaccine more accessible for patients.

NEW BOOKS FOR THE WEST SIDE READS PROGRAM
|
|
Manchester Community Health Center is proud to be part of the new
West Side Reads
initiative. This program, generously funded by
Cogswell Benevolent Trust
through
Granite United Way
,
allows us to provide books to our pediatric patients between 6-12 years old, to promote child and family literacy.
MCHC has already received 340 books for children and within the next year we will receive upwards of 1,000 more books. The books will be distributed to children at pediatric visits. The book selection will include books in a variety of languages, including Spanish and Nepali, to reach Manchester's diverse community.
