With more than 30 primary care clinics located throughout Northeastern Minnesota and
Northwestern Wisconsin as well as 30 specialty clinics, CareNorth
providers live and provide care in the many communities we serve. Our physicians
and other providers regularly attend community health fairs, employer-sponsored
wellness activities, educational sessions and lecture on health-related (and health care coverage issue) topics.
In addition to the above, recent programs for CareNorth patients have
included free glucose monitors and supplies for our diabetic patients and free
training to patients and community caregivers on correctly administering
blood pressure testing as well as offering resources and education on
calibration and maintenance of BP cuffs.
In 2003 our outreach and educational programs will be expanded, with blood
pressure equipment available for community and employer use as well as
educational materials and programs. If your organization would like a physician
or one of our other health care providers to present at an event, email or call
Jeff Tucker,

CareNorth is also a proud sponsor of the local
broadcast of Doctors on Call and other public television programming on PBS eight.
