Project HEAL

SELHS' Project Health Equality
and Access for Lancaster (HEAL) has successfully reached our $6.75 million goal! In just over 2 years, we've ended our capital campaign with a beautiful new building on Arch Street and a newly renovated building on Duke Street. We've grown from 20 medical exam rooms to 44;
6 dental chairs to 13; and will go from just over 60,000 visits per year to the potential for 130,000 visits per year!

SouthEast introduces
"The Breastfeeding Group"


The Breastfeeding Group is a space where patients can come and educate themselves on the topic of breastfeeding, ask questions in regards to breastfeeding, and learn from their peers who are either pregnant or are currently breastfeeding. This group is designed to educate and support the patients through conversation and media, and will be facilitated by a healthcare provider.  Each meeting is considered a medical visit, unlike many other support groups, and will meet every Tuesday from 1-2 p.m. at our Arch Street site.

All patients who attend will receive
a complimentary gift.
