The new Boothbay Region Health Center invites you to an open house from 4 to 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, June 10. Come check out our offices, enjoy healthy snacks, meet our physicians, nurse practitioners, and health coordinators, and get educated about tick-born diseases by our board member, Paula Jackson Jones.

Matching grant: The Boothbay Region Health Center recently received a $2,500 “community matching grant” from the Rotary Foundation. There's a deadline of June 15 for the Health Center to raise another $2,500 from the community. Contributions are tax-deductible. The grant will be used to replace the dangerously fraying 20-year old carpeting at the Health Center. Donations can be mailed to BRHC, 185 Townsend Ave., Boothbay Harbor, ME 04538, or dropped off at the Health Center, or made online at: https://boothbayhealthcare.org/how-to-donate/

The Health Center is conveniently located in the “Meadow Mall,” right next to the Family Dollar Store, and beyond the Community Center in the same corridor. So there's plenty of parking. Check us out --- so that if you, or your summer visitors, need same day healthcare, you'll know where to go for the most cost-effective, attentive, high quality treatment in Maine. We accept most health insurance, and we also welcome those without insurance, with a 30 percent discount for those who pay at the time of service. You can call ahead (633-1075) and make an appointment, or just walk in. Our hours are 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday thru Friday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
