Unadilla Next Stop For Bassett Free Cancer Screening Coach

One of the great medical opportunities we are blessed to have in a rural area like ours, is the Bassett Hospital free medical screening coach through The Cancer Services Program of the Central Region.  This "laboratory on wheels," makes its round throughout Otsego, Delaware and Chenango counties on a regular basis.  The coach brings a number of free screening opportunities to out-of-the-way communities and small towns and villages that may be to far from a Bassett medical facility for patients to conveniently travel to.  The services are at no cost but you must make a reservation for an appointment.
