The Benson Family Media Center and Telehealth Kiosk are open at 202 S. 3rd Street! The media center has free Wi-Fi, public computers, children’s computers, public printers, and free meeting rooms for the community. Chromebooks are available for in-house use or checkout, and a Digital Navigator is available to assist senior citizens with technology and online applications. A Career Coordinator from Oklahoma Works is available on Fridays from 10:30am-5pm to assist with finding employment and filing for unemployment benefits.

Okfuskee County residents can use the new telehealth kiosk located in the media center to meet virtually with out-of-town doctors. The ADA-compliant kiosk features high-speed internet with a computer and video-conferencing equipment. It also has diagnostic equipment such as blood pressure machines, heart-rate monitors, pulse oximeters, thermometers, scales, and a high-tech stethoscope for maternity patients. There are HEPA filters and specialized lighting for sterilization. The kiosk also has white noise machines, blurred glass, and locks for privacy.

For questions or to book a telehealth appointment, contact the Benson Family Media Center at 918-716-9032.
