About the Event
As we are all aware, May is designated as Older Americans Month, and to show our appreciation of the area seniors, Highlands Health System has created what the community has come to look forward to every year, as the Senior Expo.
The Expo is a day designed to educate, entertain and support areas of interest in the lives of the senior population. The format of the program is set up "conference style" with break out sessions for the seniors to select from.
The Senior Expo will be held this year on May 4th, starting at 8:45 am at the Ramada Inn in Paintsville, with a vendor "walk through area". The program will begin at 10:00 am with a word from our Highlands Health System President/ CEO, Harold C. Warman, Jr.,.
It is our hope here at Highlands Health System, to meet and exceed the expectation of the attendees every year with up to date information concerning health and wellness.
Please plan on joining us for the day. Pre-registration required. For more information please contact: Melissa Vance, Director Community Development at 606-886-7468 or mvance@hrmc.org.
