OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — It was a chance to get life-saving care for those experiencing homelessness on Thursday. Nebraska Methodist College brought its mobile diabetes center to the Open Door Mission.
The diabetes center screens for blood pressure, blood glucose and other risk assessment factors for diabetes or pre-diabetes. but that's only the beginning.
"So this is that all-in-one event so that you can get all those things taken care of at once.

The clinic also offered flu shots on Thursday.
