Wellness Home at South Kedzie

Specialties

In order to meet the immediate and massive demand for Covid-19 testing in the Spring of 2020, Baal Perazim began offering PCR and Rapid tests through all of our Wellness Home locations, as well as fielding a mobile team that provided outreach services to group and assisted living homes. Our elderly are at the very highest risk of infection, and are often unable to travel easily due to their susceptibility and comorbidities. At its height, the demand for our testing and lab serviced resulted in our teams servicing 17 different senior living locations throughout the State of Illinois. Today, we are assisting with implementing testing programs for school districts and employers as employees and clients return to the workplace. Our first Community Covid-19 Vaccination Center opened at 82nd and Kedzie, and was the first location in the Auburn-Gresham neighborhood; it is staffed by individuals that reflect the backgrounds and cultural experiences of the residents we serve there. With the support of local political leadership, we aggressively promoted the opening of the Center and offered vaccinations during times that are practical for individuals living nearby.
