Greater Bluffton Jasper County VIM on the Move to New Location
Staff Report From Low Country CEO
Wednesday, August 29th, 2018
The Greater Bluffton Jasper County Volunteers in Medicine clinic will have a permanent new home at 29 Plantation Business Park Units 601 – 604.
The clinic is currently located at 1 Burnt Church Road in Bluffton. BJVIM plans to move in an effort to better serve and expand the services offered to their clients. The clinic will start seeing patients Monday, Sept. 10 by appointment. The new clinic will now include a pharmacy, offices and exam rooms.
Donors to BJVIM stepped up in a big way this summer to help close on this new facility with a goal to raise $80,000 in order to complete renovations and open the doors by Sept. 10. The campaign was kicked off with a significant contribution by Palmetto Electric Cooperative. BJVIM also received a grant from the Community Foundation of the Lowcountry in order to get this project started.
“This is an exciting time,” says Pam Toney, Executive Director of BJVIM, “for both the volunteers and the patients of the Greater Bluffton Jasper Volunteers in Medicine. It is wonderful to be part of a community that truly cares for those in need.”
The public is welcome to attend the ribbon cutting on Friday, Sept. 28 at 12:30 p.m. An official Open House will be scheduled at a future date.
