Take A Loved One for a Checkup Day
Take a Loved One for a Checkup Day, the third Tuesday of each September, has become a key element of the campaign. The focus of the day is to encourage individuals to take charge of their health by visiting a health professional (doctor, nurse, dentist, nurse practitioner or other health provider), making an appointment for a visit, attending a health event in the community or helping a friend, neighbor or family member do the same.
