Questions & Answers

Q: Will my visit be confidential?
Yes. Confidentiality is very important to us at the Southern Tier PRC. Your personal information and your visit to the Center will always be confidential. 

Q: Do I need an appointment?
You do not need an appointment in order to be seen for a Free Pregnancy Test at the Center. For some of our other services, we may be able to accommodate walk-ins, although we do suggest you make an appointment. It’s usually best to give us a call or text and let us know when you would like to come in to be seen by our Nurse or one of our trained peer counselors. 

Q: What do I need to bring to my appointment?
Please bring your photo ID to your appointment. If you do not have one, we will take a picture of you to keep in your patient file so that we can better protect your privacy. 

Q: Is there a cost?
No. Here at the Southern Tier PRC, all of our services are free of charge. 

Q: Can I get birth control?
We do not supply birth control, nor do we provide referrals to our clients for the purpose of obtaining birth control. We can, however, educate you on birth control and sexual health.

Q: Do you have emergency contraception?
We do not supply emergency contraception, nor do we provide referrals to our clients for the purpose of obtaining emergency contraception.
