Frederiksted Health Care Inc. joins the nation in celebrating National Health Center Week, Aug. 8-14. "Celebrating America’s Health Centers: Turning the Vision into Reality" is the theme for 2010, which highlights the 45-year record of health centers in providing affordable, high quality, cost-effective health care to all people, regardless of ability to pay.
“Providing superior health care to the uninsured and insured is the primary focus of Frederiksted Health Care,” said Masserae Webster, CEO of the center. “Health care is one of the most important components in your life. FHC is committed to raising the awareness of the needs that exist in our communities and the high costs of failure to provide primary care and preventive health.”
