Local grain elevators help GCHS raise bushels to fund new Endoscopy equipment

Greeley County Health Services is currently in need of a new Endoscopy system, which includes equipment to perform colonoscopies and detect colon cancer.

Local grain elevators, Tribune Grain and United Plains Ag, have decided to join with GCHS and allow farmers to donate grain towards a fund that will support a new scope to perform colonoscopies.

GCHS Recognizes Women’s Health

National Women’s Health Week 2012 is May 13-19th. Women’s Health Week is a weeklong health observance organized by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Women’s Health Week tries to motivate women to make their own health a top priority. Women are encouraged to eat healthy, get active, get enough sleep, pay attention to their mental health, and avoid unhealthy behaviors such as smoking or not wearing seatbelts. Finally, Women’s Health Week is designed to empower women to get their preventative health screenings done at their local health provider.

Women often serve as caregivers for their families, putting the needs of their spouses, partners, children, and parents before their own. As a result, women’s health and well-being becomes secondary. As a community, we have a responsibility to support the important women we know and do everything we can to help them take steps for longer, healthier, and happier lives.
