Sonora, CA…Sonora Regional Medical Center is pleased to announce a new schedule for the Project HOPE Health Van. Beginning Tuesday, November 1, the Health Van will be available in the Walmart parking lot, located at 1101 Sanguinetti Road in Sonora, on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. except holidays. On the second Tuesday of each month, the Health Van will be available at Interfaith, located at 18500 Striker Court in Sonora, rather than Walmart.

Project HOPE offers free medical care for general or episodic medical problems and noninvasive treatments and tests, designed to meet the needs of people who don’t have medical insurance or who have high deductibles. Services are provided by a caring nurse practitioner with many years of experience in well-equipped, private treatment rooms onboard the Health Van.

This service is made available by Sonora Regional Medical Center, thanks to generous contributions from the community. If you would like to support Project HOPE, please visit www.SonoraMedicalCenter.org or call the Foundation Office at 209-536-5020.
