Over the last 32 years, CARE Chest has provided nearly 400,000 unique services to consumers in Nevada. The demand for our free medical programming is at an all-time high. Our free services enable those in our communities who are uninsured or underinsured to have access to life-saving medical programming, allowing them to remain safe and independent in their home.
