Gunnison Valley Health Wellness Events
2017 WELLNESS EVENTS ARE NOW COMPLETE. STAY TUNED FOR 2018 WELLNESS EVENT DATES!
Please call 970-642-8418 for questions.
Gunnison Valley Health will once again be sponsoring community health fairs
in Crested Butte and Gunnison in 2017. Each year Gunnison Valley Health
provides low-cost blood tests and complimentary screenings (such as blood
pressure, body mass index and bone density) as part of the Wellness Fairs.
The goal is to provide community members with information that will help
improve general health status and identify conditions that may require
the attention of a physician. Online Registration closes Saturday April 1st.
Early blood tests are available at both locations in an effort to reduce
blood draw wait lines at the Wellness Fairs. Community members may register
for an early blood draw in Crested Butte or Gunnison prior to the associated
Wellness Fair. We encourage early blood test participants to attend the
following Wellness Fair for a complimentary Physician review of their
personalized result booklet and partake in other important health screenings.
Personalized Result Booklets
A personalized booklet including your test results will be mailed to your
home for both Early Blood Draws and Wellness Fairs.
These booklets will provide your test results as well as:
- Tips that can serve as a guide for improving or maintaining your overall wellness
- A quick, easy-to-understand Medical Summary Report to share with your doctor
- Highlighted areas where you should focus on improvement
- Space to jot down notes or questions about your personal health goals
