At Pregnancy Solutions & Services, you will meet people who truly care about you. We will answer your questions and help you understand there are ways you can still reach your future goals. We will help you to think through your choices so that you can make an informed decision about your pregnancy.
All services offered by PSS are confidential, caring, and free of charge.
Pregnancy Tests
If you have reason to believe you could be pregnant, you need to know for sure. To determine if you are indeed pregnant, PSS offers a free self-administered urine pregnancy test.
Limited Ultrasound
The technology of ultrasound has been in existence for over 40 years and still offers a “window to the womb.” By using sound waves, a picture is displayed on the ultrasound screen, enabling a woman to see the baby growing inside her.
Free limited ultrasounds are available on the PSS mobile ultrasound unit, Image Clear Ultrasound, an RV designed especially for confidentiality and convenience. ICU brings the power of ultrasound to you!
You will be able to see how far along you are in your pregnancy as well as your baby’s size and heartbeat. You will also receive an estimated due date.
Five days a week, ICU travels to different locations in the Akron area offering free ultrasounds. To schedule an appointment, please contact the PSS office.
