Casa de Salud opens to help Hispanic immigrants

This community center is helping immigrants find all the services they need to live in this country successfully. Every city should have at least one center like this one. - - Donna Poisl

Casa de Salud, a new community health and wellness center for uninsured and underinsured Hispanic immigrants, celebrated a grand opening Friday on Saint Louis University’s health campus.

Casa’s medical clinic, at the corner of Chouteau and Compton avenues, is staffed by volunteer physicians, nurses and nurse practitioners to provide episodic care for non-acute injuries and illnesses. It also assists patients in connecting with existing care providers, such as the region’s community health centers, for ongoing care.
