ACHHH has completed more than 30 free flu clinics this year for civic organizations, members of the college community, schools, residential care facilities and businesses. So far almost 1000 community members have been immunized with more scheduled. “This year, more than ever, it is important that as many members of our community as possible receive the flu vaccine”, stated Deborah Wesley, RN and CEO of the agency. She shared her goal of making this process as convenient as possible and commented about how much she and her nurses have enjoyed the process of going out into the community to provide this service.
