  • Are you planning your New Year's resolutions for 2013? The Health
    Department staff offers the following Health Resolutions Checklist for your
    consideration:

    * Quit Smoking
    * Get Your Annual Mammogram
    * Keep Your Annual Pap Test
    * Make sure all in the family are up-to-date on needed immunizations
    * Eat Healthy
    * Get Exercise
    * Keep/Make Well Baby/Child Exams
    * Get an Annual Fasting Blood Draw

    If you are considering one of these resolutions, the Henry and Stark
    County Health Departments may be able to help you with smoking cessation
    products, women exams, and child immunizations. These services are
    available at the Health Department, many for free or for a nominal fee.
    The Health Department reminds area residents that we have grant funds,
    services and programs to help you keep your 2013 New Year's Resolutions.

    The New Year can be a great opportunity to start fresh. And New Year's
    resolutions can be a powerful tool to give your health a big boost - and
    improve your whole life. Far too often, though, resolutions don't last past
    February or March. Instead of motivating you for success, resolutions are
    often unrealistic - and can make you feel like you've failed. Let the
    Health Department help you meet your goals and resolutions for the upcoming
    year.

    For more information call the Health Department at (309) 852-5272 (Main
    Office), (309) 792-4011 (Colona Office) or (309) 852-3115 (Stark County) or

    New Year!
