In recognition of Cholesterol Education Month, the Health District is offering free cholesterol tests to all district residents during September. The district covers the northern two-thirds of Larimer County and includes the cities of Fort Collins, Timnath, LaPorte, Bellvue, Wellington and Red Feather Lakes.
People who live outside the district pay the regular fee of $15.
The test includes results for total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides and blood glucose, as well as a blood-pressure check and interpretation of test results by a registered nurse. Appointments are strongly recommended. Walk-ins will be accepted only at designated clinics as space allows.
A complete list of screening dates and locations is available at www.healthdistrict.org/heart or by calling the Health District at 224-5209. Appointments fill fast, so reserve your spot now!
