[December 20, 2018]
The Lincoln Elks #914 Lodge in cooperation with the Illinois Elks
Children’s Care Corporation and Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital will
once again sponsor a free children’s orthopedic assessment clinic on
Tuesday, January 8 from 1pm-3pm at ALMH.
|
The clinic is by appointment only.
The clinic is an ideal time to have a child reviewed for bone and
joint development. If your child has an uncorrectable deformity,
complains of back, knee, leg, ankle pain or has a back curvature,
they can be seen at the clinic. No medical referral is necessary for
the clinic, however, physicians are welcome to refer patients to the
clinic for a specific reason or second opinion.
The Elks Organization has been working with physically challenged
children since 1928. There are 17 clinic locations throughout
Illinois.

The Elks will provide financial assistance to the best of their
ability for children needing further treatment or specialty
equipment when the family lacks sufficient resources to do so.

In the past, the Elks have purchased therapy services, corrective shoes, braces,
orthotics, wheelchairs and augmentative communication devices to help children
overcome a variety of physical challenges.
Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital is located at 200 Stahlhut in Lincoln, IL. To
make an appointment for the clinic, call the Illinois Elks Children’s Care
office at 1-800-272-0074 anytime between 9am - 4pm, Monday through Friday. There
are no charges for any services performed at the clinic.
