RaeAnn Tucker from the Henry and Stark County Health Departments joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to discuss STI Awareness Month, Easter food safety, and free Medicare wellness visits. April is highlighting key health initiatives in Henry and Stark Counties. With STI Awareness Month on, the mantra is "Talk. Test. Treat." to combat the rising 20 million new STI cases annually in the U.S., heavily impacting those aged 15 to 24. Local clinics in Kewanee, Colona, and Toulon offer discreet testing and treatment. As Easter nears, food safety remains paramount. Follow guidelines for safe egg handling to avoid illnesses. Lastly, prioritize preventive care with free Medicare Annual Wellness Visits. Call local First Choice Healthcare clinics for appointments and ensure a healthier tomorrow. Stay informed and proactive this April.
