Nearly 200 people attended Saturday’s Free Health Fair and Open House at the new location of the Christian County Health Department at 730 North Pawnee in Taylorville.
Health Department personnel had a number of informational booths and free giveaways on topics such as mosquitos; free blood pressure checks; the Women’s, Infants, and Children’s or WIC program; free diaper travel packs, and mental health wellness information.
The event also included guided tours of the building they moved into late last year, and was broadcast live on WMKR Genuine Country 94-point-3 and WRAN groovy 97-point-3.
Health Department administrator Doctor Chad Anderson was pleased with the turnout.
Doctor Anderson got lots of positive comments about the new location.
The Christian County Health Department provides a host of services to Christian County residents weekdays from 8 til noon and one til 4 weekdays.
