This week we celebrate National Public Health Week 2026 (April 6–12). This annual observance, established by the American Public Health Association (APHA), celebrates the achievements of public health and reinforces our shared commitment to improving health outcomes nationwide.
Boone Health’s Community Wellness team would like to extend our sincere appreciation to all of our partnering Health Departments for their continued collaboration. Together, we are able to provide communities with free screenings, education, and meaningful support that truly makes a difference.

A select group of physician partners at the Missouri Heart Center notified Boone Health that they would be ending the long-term relationship in early May. While this news came as a surprise to leaders, Boone Health remains committed to delivering the same region-best, quality care that mid-Missourians have come to know.
Boone Health’s Community Wellness team provided free A1C and blood pressure screenings at the Senior Expo in Mexico, Missouri. Our team was able to educate participants about their results, offer lifestyle recommendations, and refer individuals to healthcare providers when appropriate.
