Men’s Day Health Event Planned at Coplin Health Systems
With the month of June nationally recognized as Men’s Health Month, Coplin Health Systems will be hosting an event that will allow men to be screened for various health issues.
Each year, Men’s Health Month is focused on heightening the awareness of preventable health concerns in men and to encourage early detection and treatment of disease among males of all ages.
Coplin Health System’s Men’s Health Day will provide men a better understanding of how to stay healthy and offer health screenings to assess their current health.
The event will be held from 7 a.m. until 2 p.m. on June 28, 2021 at the Southern Local Wellness Center, located at 906 Elm Street in Racine, Ohio.

Along with the screenings, educational materials will be available, including testicular self-exam cards and more.
Appointments are required to accommodate social distancing and a wearing a mask is also requested for your visit. To make an appointment, call 740-949-2348 or River Valley Wellness at 304-273-1033.
