Your employee health centers

Because the weather in NashVegas can't decide if it wants to be spring or winter, teachers and students are getting sick in droves. Thankfully MNPS has found a way to help their employees; Employee & Family Healthcare Centers.

It's a great idea, have a place close to schools, they are all at schools across the district, where employees and their families can go and see a nurse practionisher and hopefully get in and out in less time.

That all sounds fine until you find where they are: old portables.

Seriously, you can't make this sh-- up.

Yes, the very thing that has made more than one teacher and student sick in the first place is where MNPS is choosing to put these centers. Located in the distinctive yellow and gray portables at key locations across Metro, the MNPS Employee & Family Healthcare Centers are now open in their permanent locations.

I think I'll take my chances at a clinic.

Here are the services they provide:

Quick same day appointments
Same day appointments are available for acute illnesses or injuries.

High Quality Care
Highly qualified, Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioners affiliated with Vanderbilt School of Nursing. Physician available for consultation with Nurse Practitioners at all times.

High Value—low cost
Since the Centers are funded by the Teachers Health plan—certificated (teaching) employees and dependents covered by the plan will have no out-of-pocket expense (copays, deductibles).

Support staff and other Metro employees will have to pay their regular copays, coinsurance and deductibles
