Four Corners Health Dept. Press Release

As spring turns into summer, Four Corners Health Department is joining people across the country to celebrate two important times: National Women’s Health Week (May 12–18, 2025) and Men’s Health Month (June 2025). These events help everyone learn more about health, remind people to take care of themselves, and bring attention to health needs that are different for men and women.

Women’s Health Week: Time to Focus on You

National Women’s Health Week is a great time for women to put their health first. It’s about going to check-ups, learning about health problems, and taking care of your body and mind. Women are encouraged to get the care they need, make healthy choices, and ask for support when they need it.

Men’s Health Month: Taking Care of Yourself Matters

June is Men’s Health Month. It helps raise awareness about health problems that affect men. Many men wait too long to see a doctor or talk about how they feel. We encourage men to go to the doctor, talk openly about their health, and make small changes that can lead to a healthier life.

Small Steps Make a Big Difference

Healthy communities begin with healthy people. Whether it’s getting a check-up, going for a walk, or having an honest talk with someone you care about—every step counts.

 Here’s How You Can Join In:

  • Schedule your check-up or health screening
  • Move your body every day—walk, bike, dance, or stretch
  • Talk with a friend or family member about their health
  • Learn more from trusted health websites or ask your doctor
