Essentia Health is hosting Women’s Health Day on April 20 in Baxter to raise awareness of women’s health and enhance access to important services. The event will provide attendees with the opportunity to receive mammograms and cervical screenings, as well as learn about other women’s health topics. According to Shawna Reed, the operations director for the Essentia Health-Baxter Clinic, health screenings for women are crucial for proactive healthcare, enabling early detection and prevention of potential health issues. By prioritizing regular screenings, women can take control of their well-being, ensuring timely interventions and promoting overall health and longevity.
The event will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Essentia Health-Baxter Clinic located at 13060 Isle Drive. Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are preferred. Appointments can be made by calling 218-828-7100 or by using Essentia’s MyChart patient portal.
