Addus HealthCare is continuing a service to the homebound public. If you or someone you know has difficulty getting out, the organization will send a nurse to come to your home to give a flu or pneumonia shot.
Traditional Medicare will be billed for all Medicare recipients; all others will be charged $25 for a flu shot and $40 for a pneumonia shot.
Info: Call Deanna Williams at 997-6565 or toll-free at (866) 687-9639 to schedule your appointment.
