EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) — The El Paso Children\u2019s Hospital announced\u00a0the\u00a0newest Pediatric Mobile\u00a0Clinic.<\/p>\n
Congresswoman Veronica Escobar cut the ribbon for\u00a0the new clinic, which is housed in a bus. Escobar was there along with the hospital’s\u00a0board of directors and community partners.<\/p>\n
The hospital says the new mobile clinic will help staff take basic and specialty pediatric healthcare to the outlying rural areas of the community. The new mobile clinic is equipped with exam rooms, along with basic equipment and supplies to provide\u00a0various clinical services and vaccinations.<\/p>\n
“Our full fledged effort is to make sure that every child has the ability to receive that high level of care versus having to go out of town to another large city to receive that level of care,”\u00a0Cindy Stout, CEO of the hospital, said.<\/p>\n
This new service will help El Paso children\u2019s hospital expand its partnerships with school districts, community centers and other community organizations in underserved areas.<\/p>\n
