The mission of the Primary Care & Hope Clinic is to provide accessible, affordable, and quality health care to the medically uninsured and underserved in our community. The clinic is unique in that it is the only facility in Rutherford County with a comprehensive program designed specifically to meet the medical needs of the uninsured. These needs encompass not only the physical examination, but provision of lab work, x-ray diagnostics, medications and social services. Services include treatment for acute and chronic illness, well visits/physical exams, women's health, well child exams, immunizations, and social services.
