We had a good mail day! We are grateful for the support from our community, especially as we continue the long battle against COVID-19.

One of these donors specified that the gift was to honor our Patient Advocates, Albert Anderson and Maria May, for the “invaluable” help they gave him.

Our Patient Advocates provide an amazing service to our community, free of charge to anyone, whether you are an MCC patient or not. They help you navigate through Medicare, Medicaid, disability, Covered California, CalFresh, and other state and federal programs. Call us at (707) 964-1251 to make an appointment with one of our friendly, knowledgeable Patient Advocates.

It was a magical evening at Little River Inn on February 5! Our very first fundraising Winemaker Dinner was fabulous, with a delicious seafood-forward menu paired with fine local wines. We are thankful to our generous donors and supporters, our beloved former sheriff Tom Allman, and our partners at Visit Mendocino County for a fantastic and memorable event.

Happy Monday! Off we go!

If there’s one thing we have learned here at MCC over the (seemingly endless) COVID Era, it’s how to change things up to keep everyone safer and healthier.

Instead of big, community celebrations for our annual fundraiser, this year, we are holding small, intimate winemaker dinners at legendary inns.

𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗙𝗲𝗯𝗿𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝟱, 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗳𝘂𝗹 Little River Inn. We had a last-minute cancellation, so a couple of seats for this unique and memorable event are up for grabs! Email events@mccinc.org or get your tickets here:

Chef Marc Dym has created a delectable menu to pair with the perfect local wines from Domaine Anderson, Roederer Estate, and Toulouse Vineyards & Winery. It’s an evening you won’t forget!

To keep everyone safe, guests and staff must provide proof of vaccination. Seating is limited to allow for healthy spacing, and everyone will be rapid-tested before the festivities begin.

It was a beautiful day to make our exam rooms more beautiful and more functional! We were excited to receive a shipment of brand-new exam tables and get them installed. They look great and are very comfortable. We love to invest in our patients!

Welcome to the week!

Before we get to this week’s schedule, we’d like to remind you that we are NOT doing testing for people with symptoms during surveillance testing on Wednesdays and Thursdays. These are different tests and are processed differently. If you have symptoms, call us at 707 964 1251 to get assessed and to see if you need to be tested.

If you have been exposed, please wait for 3 or 4 days before asking to be tested. You will not get a true result if the test is done too early after the exposure. As always, if you have symptoms, call us at 707 964 1251 and let us know you have COVID symptoms.
