RAINSBORO, Ohio — The Highland County Health Department’s Care-A-Van made its monthly stop in two southern Highland County communities Wednesday, offering free immunizations, blood pressure checks and other basic health services to residents.
The mobile clinic was parked at Rainsboro Methodist Church from 10 a.m. to noon, then moved to Beechwood Pizza from 1 to 4 p.m., the health department said in a Facebook post.
Staff offered blood glucose readings, blood pressure checks, adult and child immunizations, limited lab work, head lice screening, and flu and COVID-19 vaccines. All services were free, and no appointment was necessary, according to the post.
Wednesday’s stop is part of the health department’s seasonal Care-A-Van rotation, which runs from April through late September and brings the mobile clinic to a different pair of Highland County communities each week. Rainsboro and Beechwood Pizza are visited on the third Wednesday of the month, with other stops in the rotation including Buford, Lynchburg, Greenfield, Leesburg and Mowrystown, according to the department’s published schedule.
