The poor and uninsured will have greater access to pediatric care through a new health center that is a collaboration between Slidell (LA) Memorial Hospital and St. Charles Community Health Center, healthcare providers say. The St. Tammany Community Health Center is slated to open July 1 at Slidell Memorial. Administrators are planning to expand the center's services within the first few years, eventually offering adult primary care and moving to a larger location.
