The Heritage HealthCare School-Based Center has become an essential part of HealthCare for children with the primary goal of ensuring students have access to high-quality health care when they need it. The Heritage HealthCare School-Based Center provides primary and preventive care, chronic care and referrals as needed to specialists.
The Heritage HealthCare School-Based Center amplifies the resources families have, and we collaborate with your primary care physician to ensure that all services are provided with a high level of quality care in a compassionate learning environment.
Heritage HealthCare’s bi-lingual School-Based Center offers a full team onsite whenever school is in session which provides comprehensive primary health care to the children of PS. 192. Full onsite care consists of a Nurse Practitioner (NP), and a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) or a Medical Assistant (MA), who work in concert with the school staff to provide patient-centered care to the students while at school.
