Lebanon Family Health Services (LFHS) has introduced a new mobile unit that will bring its care directly into the communities it serves.
The new mobile unit was funded by a grant through WellSpan Health’s Imagine Grant program.
The mobile unit will be used to deliver services as part of the Pennsylvania Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC program), such as nutrition education, breastfeeding support, and referrals for pregnant, breastfeeding, and postpartum women, infants, and children under age 5. The WIC program has been shown to save taxpayers about $2.50 in future health care costs for every dollar spent on it.
Here are the mobile unit’s currently announced dates/locations for the remainder of February:
- Monday, Feb. 13, 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. – Redner’s Palmyra
