“We often take our health for granted and do not make the time for preventative care. The Mobile Outreach Bus is a great resource that offers important health and wellness services. If you are not up to date on your physical, there is no downside to utilizing this opportunity to check in on your health. I am grateful to Doreen Perrino, her team at the Senior Citizens Center, and Catholic Health Services for offering this proactive measure and promoting wellness” - Supervisor Ed Wehrheim

“The Catholic Health Mobile Outreach Bus affords our community an opportunity to receive a number of important screenings, referrals, a flu vaccination (senior dose available) and many other services right on our premises. Participants are seen by a Catholic Health Registered Nurse; they can feel completely confident in the care they will receive. My employees work hand-in-hand with CHSLI staff to ensure the process runs smoothly and efficiently, from assisting with paperwork to walking patrons out to the bus. Smithtown residents 18 years of age and older should come on down and take advantage of this beneficial amenity!” -Doreen Perrino, Program Director, Senior Citizen’s Department.
