COMMUNITY VOICES

The New BMS@Dumont Urgent Care Center Will Open Soon!

BMS Family Health and Wellness Centers will open soon the new BMS Dumont Urgent Care Center (located at 407 Dumont Ave; Brooklyn, NY 11212) to provide care on an unscheduled walk-in basis to individuals with acute, non-emergency conditions. The Center will offer six exam rooms, as well as lab services (phlebotomy,) imaging, and mammography services.

This will be the first urgent care center operated by a stand-alone Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) in North and Central Brooklyn, serving low-income communities with elevated rates of health disparities in Brownsville and East New York.

Patients who do not have a medical home or usual source of care will be provided with information and assistance in selecting a primary care provider that meets their needs (location, specialty services, hours, language access).

In addition to urgent care, the center will provide:

Care coordination
Medical lab and testing (phlebotomy)
Pharmacy
Diagnostic imaging
Mammography

The community will also benefit from the opportunity to be connected to a regular source of care, and health centers (BMS and others) will benefit by enrolling and serving previously unserved patients.

BMS Teen Program Rolls Out to District 23 Middle Schools

The Sexual Risk Avoidance program (SRAE) targets 10-13 year olds for sexual risk avoidance education in middle school and after school programs across Brownsville and East New York. The program focuses on goal setting for youth as a tool to educate on how early sexual activity can have negative impact in the vision they have for their lives.

The SRAE Team was able to successfully advocate with the District 23 Superintendent to have incorporate the SRAE program into District 23 middle schools which means we will be able to reach more students and their families!
