Sleep Health Featured in March at Wyandot on Wheels

Wyandot Memorial Hospital’s Wyandot On Wheels is celebrating Sleep Awareness Month in March with free sleep disorder risk measurements and sleep quality questionnaires.

Tips for healthy sleep will also be provided to WOW visitors, including the benefits of optimal sleep and how sleep affects health, well-being and safety.

The WOW visits are scheduled throughout the county on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The bus is parked just north of the square in Sycamore on the first Wednesday of each month. On the second Wednesday, WOW is at the Forest VFW. The bus travels to the Nevada United Methodist Church on the third Wednesday, and the fourth Wednesday of every month finds WOW at the Harpster Township Hall. The Carey Senior Depot hosts WOW every Thursday.

Wyandot On Wheels offers lab draws for blood tests and community health screenings. The physician-ordered lab draws are billed to patients’ insurances. The screenings are a special outreach offering of the hospital for low-cost services that are important indicators for disease and health status.

In addition to blood draws, WOW Coordinator Michelle Gullifer offers free blood pressure checks and schedules screening mammograms for early detection of cancer. She welcomes phone calls (419-294-4991, extension 1969), emails (mgullifer@wyandotmemorial.org) or visits to WOW for more information about the community visits or monthly specials.
