Organize Your Health Information:
Do You Have A list of Medications? Insurance Numbers? Health Conditions? Emergency Contacts? and Doctors? Tired of writing this information every time you visit a healthcare provider? Carol Miller will be available in the church lobby this Sunday to introduce you to a new and simple way to have all your information in one place for all your healthcare visits. There is no charge for this assistance; just a simple questionnaire to fill out and Carol will do the rest. For more information, please call, text, or e-mail Carol Miller.
