By Mary TuckerAt our March 18th meeting, the Margaretville Hospital Mobile Health Van was parked in the Andes Methodist Church driveway. Due to the mud, RN Michael McDermott brought his equipment inside where he explained that the purpose of the Health Van is to bring health care to the rural areas of the county. He then checked blood glucose levels, oxygen levels in the blood, lung function and blood pressures. He scheduled a return of the van for April 16th at 11:30 AM, the date of the next Andes Senior Club meeting. This service is available to all Delaware County residents at no charge as Mr. McDermott is employed by the County. All Andes seniors are welcome to attend our Senior Club lunch and meeting; membership isn’t required. The schedule for future visits of the Mobile Health Van will be decided at the April meeting. ~
