Causes: Community Clinics, Health
Mission: Our mission is to provide quality health care and support to those without access within a culture of caring.
Results: VMSN supports this mission by targeting and serving residents living at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Level, who do not qualify for Medicaid/Medicare and are unable to obtain affordable health insurance coverage through public or private means. We provide these underserved residents free medical, dental, social and behavioral health care services, including access to diagnostic testing and medications to over 2,250 unduplicated patients per year. VMSN engages a wide and diverse network of volunteer medical and non-medical support staff who donate nearly 24,000 hours of service and provide over 5,000 primary and specialty medical care appointments each year. VMSN delivers these critical services at two VMSN-owned and operated clinics in Southern Nevada: The Paradise Park Clinic (opened in 2010) and the Ruffin Family Clinic (opened in 2015). Due to client demand, the opening of the additional clinic in 2015, and an increased pool of dedicated volunteers, VMSN saw a 190% increase in the number of client visits from 2010 to 2015.With this increased demand and capacity, and our continually growing collaborative network of volunteers, community partners, education institutions, and donors such as [Funder Name], our goal is to provide over 7,500 patient visits per year in [year]. This will equate to a 40% increase in the number of clients served annually. We estimate these services will provide over $4 million per year in donated medical care and medication administered to our most disadvantaged and underserved residents.
Target demographics: provide access to health care to the Southern Nevada’s working families who are either not eligible for Medicaid/Medicare or cannot obtain affordable health insurance coverage.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 2,000 patients
Geographic areas served: 501(c)3 nonprofit organization
Programs: We opened our first clinic at Paradise Park in January of 2010.With our primarily volunteer staff, VMSN clinics provide free adult and pediatric primary care, preventive, chronic and acute care, newborn checkup and immunizations, diagnostic tests, medications, breast, cervical and colorectal cancer screenings to Southern Nevada residents. We will help prevent acute hospitalization, reduce hospital costs and decrease taxpayer burdens. Most importantly, we will care for the neglected and unseen members of our community who are hurting.
