SHAL works with the Monroe County Health Department with monthly nurse visits to the Shelter to provide vaccines, HIV testing and flu shots for clients.
SHAL partners with Visiting Nurses Association to provide weekly services at the Shelter. Each Thursday morning, VNA nurses see clients for triage, wound treatment and other services to assist the homeless on their path to self-sufficiency.
SHAL Outreach partners with the Rural Health Network of Monroe County (RHN) to provide free diagnostic services, testing and prescriptions for their homeless clients. Many homeless clients suffer from long-term or chronic conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, and conditions that require regular supervision and medication.
Since this is a sliding fee scale clinic, we have provided the Federal Poverty Guidelines below. Visit the SHAL- Southernmost Homeless Assistance League website listed above to see what the level is needed for free care.

These numbers above represent 100% of the Federal Poverty Rate. In order to get reduced or free services from some clinics, they use a sliding fee scale based on your income.When they use a sliding fee scale, the 100% rate can be different than 100%. In those cases, using for example a 200% federal poverty level, you will only need double the 100% number listed above to 200%.
