Many of us like being in control. When it comes to our health, although there will always be certain things that are out of our control, like our genetics, there are also many things within our control. The more we know about our own health status, the more we can make informed health decisions. After all, no one is better suited to oversee your health than you!
If you are motivated to take charge of your health this year, SMSC Health & Wellness is here to help you make an action plan. Throughout 2024, we will be focusing on taking action to protect and improve all aspects of your health and safety. We will be tackling topics such as heart health, mental and emotional health, diabetes, mobility, and medication safety. Whether we are talking about safe lifting at work or heart disease, we know the more we are in tune with our health, the easier it is to detect concerns early or even prevent an issue all together.
To help you stay updated on your personal health, this year SMSC Health & Wellness is bringing you more pop-up clinics in Mystic’s Quiet Space. There will be opportunities each month to have a nurse check your blood pressure and blood sugar levels, in addition to having an optometrist check your vision. Additionally, every month there will be other pop-up clinics focusing on a wide range of other prevention topics. Our goal with these pop-up clinics is to help you take a quick, easy step towards knowing your own body and guiding your next steps.
One of the best parts of making goals around improving your health and safety is the many resources available to you right onsite. Among these resources are the SMSC Vision Clinic, Mystic Clinic, Aspire, the SMSC Pharmacy, Physical Therapy & Chiropractic Clinic, and many Wellness programs available. Also, back by popular demand, Bexa breast exams will be onsite January 22-24!
The more someone feels in control of their health, the more confident they feel if challenges do arise. So, come visit us Tuesdays and Thursdays in Mystic’s Quiet Space, so we can do our part to help you take charge of your health.
