NewHope Clinic

"Bringing Hope and Care, one patient at a time"
Well, it looks like maybe the Covid 19 pandemic is starting to wind down. We can only hope and pray that this is true. There is still a possibility that the virus could once more develop a variant. In the meantime the best suggestions for living with Covid are as follows: Get vaccinatedKeep up-to-date with vaccine boostersIsolate when sick or test COVID-19 positiveConsider targeted mask use following exposures and for high-risk personsFollow applicable state and local guidance

We are still able to do the test for Covid 19. The test is done by nasal swab and the results are ready in 15 minutes. Please call and make an appointment to have your test done. 606-674-8822 We are still experiencing the COVID19 pandemic. NewHope Clinic will be able to see new or existing patients in our facility. We will be at the clinic every Thursday from 8:30 AM to 3 PM. We can do the test for the Corona Virus but recommend home quarantine if you have fever, cough and shortness of breath. Do not go to the local ER unless the symptoms seem life threatening.

At this time we are not offering the Covid Vaccination, but we highly recommend it. You can make an appointment at St. Claire Healthcare at (606)783-6500 or at Bath County Health Department at (606) 674-2731.


If anyone is having trouble getting their Insulin or other medication we might be able to help even if you are not now our patient. Contact us by phone and leave a message at (606) 674-8822. Please remember that we are only at the clinic on Thursday.


As a community, we will get through this crisis. God is loving and merciful and will never abandon us. Remember that Jesus told us to "love one another". What that means in simple terms is "This is not about ME, This is about US."


Remember your neighbor and put others first. God bless you during this time of uncertainty.

Our Mission Statement: NewHope Clinic is a ministry of NewHope Ministries, Inc., which seeks to minister to the health care needs of the medically uninsured and under- insured people of Eastern Kentucky by bringing competent and compassionate health care to them as a sign of God's infinite love, tender care, and healing touch.

Have Insurance? Deductible too high? Can't afford to get care?

Maybe we can help. We are now seeing patients who have insurance but cannot use it because they can't afford the co-pay and/or deductible. Come and see us any Thursday at NewHope Clinic, 41 S. Court Street, in Owingsville, and we will discuss your situation and help you out if we can. We are here and are eager to serve the health care needs of the local people who simply cannot afford it.
