Saguache Senior Resource Fair: A Day of Care and Community

On February 14th, the Saguache Senior Resource and Health Fair, co-presented by SLV AHEC and HEART of Saguache, transformed the Saguache Community Building into a hub of support for local seniors. The event was well attended, signaling the community’s dedication to the well-being of its older residents. 

The event provided a range of services; from legal and veteran assistance to resource navigation and health essentials like blood pressure testing and vaccinations. Information on low-cost insurance options was readily available, empowering residents to make informed decisions about their healthcare. Free lunch, raffles, and giveaways added to the festive atmosphere. 

Exhibitors of the event include: Valley Wide Health Systems, Saguache Senior Center, Saguache Works Bebop Studio, Mountain Valley Medicare, Saguache County Public Health, Saguache Clinic Dental Services, Valley to Valley Senior Care Center, Saguache County Veterans Services, and the American Legion. 

We want to express our gratitude for our co-sponsors, exhibitors, and attendees for making this event the success that it was. This event was made possible through the Saguache County sales tax grant.
