Fiscal Year 2025 Expanded Hours. - Applicant: La Casa de Salud, Inc. (LCDS) Grant #: H80CS26631 La Casa de Salud, Inc. (LCDS), a designated FQHC with six locations, has been providing primary and behavioral health care, dental, and supportive services to New York City’s most vulnerable and medically fragile populations for nearly 15 years. Its patient-centered, integrated care model has successfully addressed the complex needs of low-income individuals in the South Bronx. LCDS’s proposed project aims to enhance patient access to essential health care services by increasing the number of health center operating hours at two sites: Ramon Velez Health Center 754 East 151st Street Bronx, NY 10455 Clay Avenue Health Center 1776 Clay Avenue Bronx, NY 10457 By extending the operating hours at the Ramon Velez Health Center and Clay Avenue Health Center, we will enhance patient access to essential health care services. This expansion will allow more flexible appointment times, reduce wait times, and ensure that individuals who face barriers to healthcare access, such as work schedules and transportation issues, can receive the necessary care. This initiative is crucial in improving overall community health outcomes and ensuring that our services are accessible to those who need them most.
