FREE Health Screenings at Men’s Health Day

With Father’s Day coming up, it’s time to make sure that the men in our life are happy and healthy.  Scott Memorial Hospital is hosting a Men’s Health Fair on Saturday June 9 from 10:00am to 2:00pm that will offer free food and activities for the whole family.

FREE health screenings will include prostate exams, blood sugar, blood pressure, vision and hearing.  Cholesterol and PSA testing (a screening to detect prostate cancer) will also be available for $15 each.  To pre-register for a prostate exam, or to schedule cholesterol and PSA testing call 752-9730. An 8 hour fast is recommended for the cholesterol and blood sugar screenings. 

This event will also feature booths on hunting, fishing, archery, fitness, sports, home improvement and more.  Be sure to take advantage of the free giveaways and sign up for the exciting door prizes, including four tickets to a Louisville Bats game, sports equipment and a four burner gas grill!

Children will have an opportunity to play games, tour emergency service vehicles, and jump in the bounce house.  We want to help you celebrate the men in your life, so bring them out for a fun filled afternoon.  If your organization or business would like to set up a booth or provide a door prize please call 752-8542 or email Tori Pugh.

SMH receives $10,175 Grant

Scott Memorial Hospital has been selected by the Indiana Breast Cancer Awareness Trust (IBCAT) to participate in a state-wide initiative to promote their Indiana Breast Cancer Awareness License Plates. 

Monies raised through the sale of these license plates will go toward the funding of mammography screening programs for the uninsured and underinsured women throughout Indiana.  The Indiana Breast Cancer Awareness Trust grant is funded solely on Breast Cancer License Plate sales.  Each license plate costs $40 and $25 of that goes directly to the Indiana Breast Cancer Awareness Trust.
