Ole Smoky Distillery continues a longstanding tradition of great live entertainment with this week’s Jars & Jams Virtual Concert Series event to benefit Mountain Hope Good Shepherd Clinic, a medical and dental clinic serving the uninsured. We invite you to join us for family-friendly rock-alternative bluegrass music with Monroeville from the comfort of your home. The concert will take place Friday, April 24 at 8:00 p.m. EST on the Ole Smoky Distillery Facebook page.
Mountain Hope Good Shepherd Clinic is grateful to the Board of Directors of the East Tennessee Foundation for supporting us in the fight against COVID-19 through the Neighbor to Neighbor Disaster Relief Fund. Funds will be used to support the medical treatment of those who live or work in Sevier County. For more information about the East Tennessee Foundation, please visit http://www.easttennesseefoundation.org/.
We wish to assure patients and our community that we continue to provide healthcare to the uninsured of Sevier County during the COVID-19 situation. We are following the guidance of the Tennessee Department of Health, CDC, and our local Sevier County Health Department to prevent and address COVID-19. We have made necessary changes to our normal operations to protect staff and patients. While our parking lot appears to have fewer cars and the doors are locked for patient safety, we are here. We now offer telehealth visit options to allow patients to follow the “Safer at Home” order. Our providers will provide your care over the phone or with a live video. If you have an upcoming appointment, our staff will call to discuss the best telehealth option for you. If the provider decides you have medical needs requiring you to be seen at the Clinic, please call from your car when you arrive for visit instructions. We have fewer staff at the Clinic and our call volume has increased so we ask for your patience when trying to reach us.
We understand the challenges of affordable care for those who are suddenly without jobs and insurance; we are here for you. We are opening up appointment availability to ensure we care for the urgent needs of existing and new patients. The weeks ahead may continue to be stressful and you may find yourself in need of emotional support; please allow us to help. Our team of servant hearts welcome the opportunity to care for you. Our prayers are for healing and strength for endurance as we manage this challenge together.
-Deborah Murph, Executive Director, Mountain Hope Good Shepherd Clinic
Amid the ongoing Coronavirus situation, many patients have expressed concern about visiting Mountain Hope. In an effort to offer a good alternative to visiting the Clinic, Mountain Hope is now encouraging patients to consider scheduling telehealth virtual medical visits and/or follow-ups. This video-conference approach will allow patients to interact with their medical providers via phone, tablet, computer, or other virtual device.
Patients may call 865.774.7684 to change an existing appointment to a telemedicine virtual visit, or to schedule a new telemedicine visit.
Mountain Hope staff will screen patients as they call to set appointments to ensure each requested visit is appropriate for telemedicine.
Mountain Hope’s Inaugural Swingin’ for Hope Golf Tournament presented by the Great Smoky Mountains Association of Realtors has been rescheduled for June 3, 2020 at the Sevierville Golf Course.
