KINSTON — Kinston Community Health Center’s mobile health clinic has been providing essential healthcare on the last Thursday of each month, since the summer of 2024.

Now, that mobile health clinic will be making stops in counties such as Wayne, Duplin, Jones, etc.

The first visit to Wayne County will be from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Mar. 27, at Hope Extended Ministries, at 1138 Rosewood Rd.

Future visits by the mobile health clinic to Hope Extended are being planned.

The mobile health clinic will provide adult and child health screenings, family planning, physical exams, COVID testing, STI testing, and health education.

KCHC’s mission is to provide accessible, high-quality healthcare to underserved areas, ensuring that all residents have the medical support they need.

In addition, the organization remains committed to delivering high-quality services at the highest standard of primary and preventive healthcare.

Lenoir and counties such as Wayne, Duplin, Jones, etc., have been identified as areas with limited access to healthcare, making this initiative especially important.

Rural communities face barriers such as transportation to medical facilities. By bringing healthcare directly to the community, KCHC aims to bridge this gap and ensure that residents receive the care they deserve.

During the mobile clinic visitation, patients will be able to walk in for care or schedule an appointment to be seen on-site, eliminating the need to travel to KCHC’s main office in Kinston.

The Kinston Community Health Center encourages residents of all backgrounds to take advantage of this opportunity to receive healthcare.
