Lemon Grove nonprofit provides medical resources for flood victims

has been hosting a weekly well-being event in the Mountain View neighborhood. JIREH is a mobile clinic that has been bringing much needed medical resources to flood victims."We want to make sure that the need that’s already there in regard to the flood doesn’t then turn into an emergency need with their health. And so while they might not be thinking about it, we are," said JIREH Providers' co-founder Samantha Williams.

“We want to make sure that access is right at their fingertips, not somewhere that they have to go and not a need that goes unmet," Williams said."So we bring preventative care services like our screenings for high blood pressure, diabetes, mental wellness straight to the community.

For flood victims who need medical resources or help replacing medications and medical devices, Williams recommends they calling their primary care provider. Other medical resources can be accessed through JIREH'sAs a freelance reporter, I cover a wide variety of stories.
