"Meet to Eat" for the Free Clinic
on May 10th, 2012
What is new this year is that The Open Door Clinic is doing this event solo. Participating businesses and restaurants from Chippewa County are supporting the clinic in this event to help raise needed funds and provide increased visibility to the good work our volunteers provide to our neighbors on a weekly basis.

2012 Off To A Busy Start
The Open Door Clinic has been off to a busy start so far this year. In the first 3 months of 2012 we are averaging 47 patients on clinic night. The clinic is open on Tuesday nights from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm. There is a variety of medical care available each Tuesday night which is determined by the volunteer providers and other care givers. Hats off to all of our awesome volunteers for making this possible.
New Meds Only Clinic Coming Soon
Beginning on April 30th the clinic will be piloting a meds refill only clinic on Mondays from 10 am until noon. This clinic will service existing Open Door Clinic patients who only need to have medication refills for medications previously ordered by our doctors. This pilot project will be evaluated in a few months to determine if it will be continued as a standard clinic operation.
Charlie Grossklaus, CEO of RCU, recently presented The Open Door Clinic with a check for $2,500. The money was raised at the RCU Charity Classic
held on June 26th in Eau Claire. All of the proceeds from this years event, a total of $12,500, was donated to the Free Clinics of Western Wisconsin.
RCU Charity Classic
'' We are very appreciative to be selected as one of the benefactors of the RCU Charity Classic. With the help of community partners, which includes RCU,
we are able to bring health care services to our patients who are our fellow community members.” The Open Door clinic board president Roberta Rasmus states.
The Open Door Clinic is a United Way Organization. |
