Women's Health Week
It's National Women's Health Week! Are you up to date with your routine exams and screenings?
Many women have put off routine health visits and screenings due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During Women's Health Week, May 8 - 15th, we would like to remind women that these appointments are vital for helping them maintain healthy lifestyles, identify issues early, and hopefully avoid serious health risks. We encourage you to make your health a priority and use this week to schedule any appointments you've been putting off.
Here's five ways to get back on track with prioritizing your health!

Plan your Check Up
Routine checkups are an important part of preventative care and can help you get the answers and support you need to help manage your health throughout the year. Write down any questions you may have or concerns you want to bring up with your care team. Have you noticed any changes in your mind, body or spirit wellness? Talk to your healthcare provider about these changes!
Remember other health visits, exams and screenings
Wondering if it’s time for you to get a mammogram? Pap smear? Colonoscopy? There may be other health visits, exams, and screenings you need depending on what stage of life you’re in. Talk with your healthcare provider about other exams and screenings you may need to support your health during your annual checkup.
Be Prepared
Your healthcare provider may ask you questions during your annual checkup about your health history, current lifestyle, medication use, and more. Ask your healthcare provider what you need to bring to your checkup when scheduling it. Make sure you bring the information you need to have these important conversations during your visit.
Care for your Whole Self
In addition to getting up to date on exams you may need, there are many other ways you can support your physical, mental, and emotional health and wellbeing today, and throughout the year.
