Medical Screening and Treatment

East Cape Community Urgent Care Clinic’s founder, Charlene Wenger organized her staff and eleven volunteers from Rotary Clubs in Mt Bachelor and Bend, Oregon into teams to provide free health, dental and optical screening for residents of El Cardonal, Buena Vista and Los Barriles. Between the 20th and 24th of March the teams screened 250 elementary and secondary children, and 62 adults from three towns. Wenger contacted all the schools involved and has received permission to bring the children in class by class for more comprehensive physical examinations. By May 2015 they had screened 976 individuals in total with their primary focus on education and prevention. All at no cost to the children or their families.
