Bowen Center Offering COVID-19 Vaccine Registration Assistance Bilingual Hotline
By Staff Report-
The free hotline operators can assist callers in filling out the online form to schedule their COVID-19 vaccination. The goal is to erase any barriers individuals may have to get vaccinated when they are eligible, according to a news release from the Bowen Center. The service can assist those who do not have access to a computer or internet access, are uncomfortable or unable to use a computer.
The hotline number is 574-347-4256. It’s open Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The free service is provided by Bowen Center and Bowen Health Clinic on behalf of the Kosciusko County Health Department with support from the City of Warsaw and the K21 Health Foundation.
The new service compliments Bowen Center’s free COVID-19 drive-through testing site at the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds. The site has administered nearly 13,500 tests since it opened in October. The site offers English/Spanish technicians and is open Monday, Wednesday, Friday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Tuesday and Thursday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and Saturday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Bowen Center started as a nonprofit Community Mental Health Center in northern Indiana in 1961. The Center now serves Indiana treating patients in-person, by phone or video conference with emotional health care, along with substance use treatment and primary health care clinics located in Warsaw and Fort Wayne. The Center accepts many insurance plans including Medicare and Medicaid and uses a sliding fee discount scale for patients that pay privately.
