We devote our time and resources to a number of health-education efforts as part of our larger service to the community. We want you to know how to take good care of yourself and to strive for the healthiest life possible.
You’ll see us at health fairs, such as The Daily Sentinel’s April 2007 Head to Toe Women’s Expo, where we provided free health screenings for bone health, skin cancer and blood pressure, among others.
Our healthcare professionals hold free informational diabetes support groups every month and offer a comprehensive diabetes management course through the Diabetes & Nutrition Education Center at Community Hospital.
You may also want to consider joining us for a Lunch & Learn class on a wide range of expert-led topics including preparing healthy snacks, avoiding injuries in young athletes, and walking for fun and fitness. Classes are free and open to anyone with an interest.
Community Hospital balances the complexities of medicine with a whole-person approach to healing. We are on the outside a friendly, warm, community hospital, but inside we’re smart, forward-thinking, strategic and the proud owners of some pretty amazing technology. Whether you visit us for a heart wellness scan, surgery or physical therapy, you’re not just a patient at Community Hospital, you are our guest.
We want to help you make informed decisions about your health. Our library, containing journals, videos, pamphlets and books, is open to the public. Use the comprehensive on-line health resource, Medline Plus, to help you find the consumer health and wellness information you need, or search Pubmed for clinical information.
