Carbon County Public Health is excited to partner with Wyoming Health Fairs (WHF), an organization that has made significant strides in raising funds and supporting local projects through its community health fair events. In 2018 alone, WHF raised an impressive $75,000 to bolster various initiatives and organizations throughout the state, showcasing a commitment to community well-being.
From enhancing health fair offerings to funding city parks, benches, and vital services like ambulance support, the ripple effects of WHF’s efforts are felt far and wide.
At WHF events, individuals have access to a range of crucial services, including low-cost screenings, COVID-19 testing (including antibody testing), corporate wellness programs, spiral 3D body scanning, and more.
We’re proud to collaborate with Wyoming Cancer Resource Services (WCRS), regional coordinators committed to providing vital support services to residents across Wyoming.
WCRS plays a crucial role in educating communities about cancer prevention programs, services, and risk factors. They emphasize the importance of early detection through educational outreach about screening recommendations. Moreover, WCRS serves as a valuable resource for connecting individuals with cancer screening programs and offering patient navigation services, including assistance with transportation and financial resources.
Our partnership with WCRS ensures that Carbon County residents have access to comprehensive cancer information and resources, tailored to their needs. Together, we’re dedicated to promoting early detection and supporting individuals through every step of their cancer journey.
At Carbon County Public Health, we provide convenient access to Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) determination physicians, enabling claimants to consult with a physician locally. Our clinics typically occur approximately every 6-8 weeks, ensuring regular opportunities for individuals to seek medical assessments in their community. For any inquiries regarding your SSDI claim, please contact the Social Security Administration directly.
