Description
Bette Grey understands the plight
of the uninsured. She has walked in
the shoes of those she now helps to
get healthcare. She believes the life
events that triggered this journey were
actually blessings in disguise to not
only others but for her as well. She
credits God with the nudges to begin
the project. No matter what direction
her life took, she always was brought
back to the idea for a free clinic.
While recuperating from a vital surgery, she thought about those with
the same issues who had no access to care other than through the local
emergency room. And then she really thought about those who might
refuse to go. She knew they would ultimately end up in the emergency
room as a necessity, nearing death. She credits the ABC news program,
20/20 and the segment featuring Jon BonJovi. The performer was
dedicating many dollars to a local free clinic in his community. The free
clinic in Red Bank followed the Volunteers in Medicine clinic model.
Bette innocently decided to explore the internet to fi nd out about this
type of clinic. She had no intentions of doing anything further but she
believes God had other plans.
Fast forward with many meetings under her belt, she was able to open the
fi fty-fi rst Volunteers in Medicine clinic. As she looks back, she believes
the lives saved are incredible, more than she ever thought. She really
thought the clinic would be more for acute illness rather than the chronic
diseases the clinic have treated. Never did she expect the seriousness of the
diagnoses that would lead to the deaths of everyday folks.
