Health Clinic Opens at Manual Arts High
A health clinic operated by Childrens Hospital of Los Angeles has opened at Manual Arts High School, the eighth such facility in the Los Angeles Unified School District.
The clinic is being staffed by a doctor, nurse, mental health professional and health educator. In the last 12 months, clinics at district schools reported more than 15,400 patient visits.
“I think it is an absolutely fabulous thing because most of the students who are using it have no health insurance,” said district spokeswoman Socorro Serrano.
