Education
Our medical care extends far beyond our hospital walls. We offer a variety of tools and information designed to help you make healthy decisions as you go about your daily life.
Within the Hospital
We often host informational health presentations that are free to anyone in the community wishing to attend. Typically an hour long, we feature a variety of topics and medical experts.
Information may be about a new service offered within the hospital, or we may simply recap a health topic worth knowing.We often use this opportunity to introduce new physicians and staff as well. How often do you have the chance to meet a new doctor before scheduling an appointment?
In addition to informational talks, we offer monthly support groups and classes to address the needs of our patient population. They include a variety of health topics including:
- Grief and Loss
- CPR & First Aid Training
- Diabetes Education
- Stroke
Within the Community
Our education staff offers more than 70 different informational and educational presentations for community groups, clubs, service organizations, businesses, industries, churches, church groups, schools, and the general public. Topics range from disease prevention and safety to physical fitness and mental health.
In addition, we participate in several area health fairs to offer resources and education to the public on an individualized basis. To inquire about a presentation or a health fair opportunity, please call (815) 431-5496.
