Info below about the next wellness clinic day located in Elbow.

PSA: this is separate from our SHA appointment days. The first appointment day of visiting SHA services went great and we are currently planning future dates. But in the meantime this is a great opportunity for blood pressure checks and minor concerns.

📘 Line 19 Community Resource Guide – Winter 2026
An updated version of the Line 19 Community Resource Guide has been completed. Because this guide is an important, practical resource, it will be shared in a separate post so it’s easier for residents to find and reference.

Please note that the Resource Guide is a living, working document and will continue to be updated as services change or expand. If you are aware of any health-related or community resources that should be added, updated, or corrected, we welcome your input. Please email us at line19hcc@gmail.com, and we’ll be happy to adjust the guide.

Thank you for your continued support and engagement as we work toward improving access to primary health care across the Line 19 region. More updates coming soon.

The Line 19 Health Care Committee is currently working on a Line 19 Community Resource Guide — a document that brings together all the health-related and general community resources available across our area, along with information on how to access them.

This guide is actively being updated, and we want to make sure it truly reflects everything our communities have to offer.
If you have a resource you think should be added or updated, please comment below or email us at line19hcc@gmail.com.

Once the guide is finalized, our goal is to laminate and distribute a copy to all Line 19 residents.

Thank you for helping us build something useful for everyone in our region! 💙🌾

📌 New Line 19 Community Fridge Magnets Are Here!

Our committee is so excited to share the fridge magnets we created for all Line 19 residents! 🤍💛

This idea came from a community member who wanted families to have quick, easy access to emergency numbers and space for their own household medical information. We absolutely loved the suggestion — and the committee worked together to make it happen.

These magnets are completely free for anyone living in the Line 19 region. We’ll be finalizing a full distribution plan at our January meeting, but if you’d like one sooner, they will be available for pickup at the Village of Elbow Office starting Thursday, November 20th.

A huge thank-you to the ELBOW Farmers Market for generously donating the funds to cover the cost of these magnets. Your support helps keep our community safer and more connected. 🌾💙

If you have ideas for future community resources or projects, we’d love to hear them!
