Health Outreach
Many refugees and immigrants have had little access to health care before coming to America and also experience multiple barriers to care once resettled. The Center partners with medical students from Vanderbilt International Connections to provide refugees and immigrants with community-based health screenings throughout the year. Screenings typically include the following services: health recommendations based on Body Mass Index, blood pressure testing, blood glucose levels testing, infectious diseases testing, flu shots (seasonally), and recommendations for low-cost health care providers.
For more information or to request a screening, please call 615-366-6868.
