Th e Oak Street Health Center, located at

Brandon Holler, regional vice president
at Oak Street Health, said they’re excited
to expand access to its high-quality, valuebased
care to members of the Jamaica community
with the opening of its new center.
“Th e majority of older adults we care for
have two or more chronic conditions, making
this kind of care so important,” Holler
said. “As our organization continues its
mission to rebuild healthcare as it should
be, we look forward to improving patient
outcomes in New York and helping older
adults live their healthiest lives.”
Patients can expect an unmatched
healthcare experience that includes quality
time with their provider in-person or
via TeleHealth, a 24/7 patient support line,
individualized, preventative care plans, and
access to transportation to and from the
center for eligible patients.
Additional services, such as behavioral
healthcare, social health support and
Medicare educational classes, are also
off ered to help older adults meet their
unique needs in one convenient location.
