Community Howard and the YMCA team up!
FREE on-site injury and blood pressure screenings with Community Howard Regional Health!
We are excited to offer a health-focused perk for Y members through a new partnership with Community Howard Regional Health. Through this new partnership with Community Howard, certified athletic trainers will provide FREE consults and education for YMCA members. These certified athletic trainers are bachelor’s degree educated (or higher), healthcare providers trained to provide preventative and emergency care, assess injuries and support rehabilitation. A Community Howard athletic trainer will offer consults for injuries, mobility concerns and chronic pain, as well as education around the prevention of injuries, such as demonstrations on proper warm up and stretching, instruction on proper exercise technique and nutrition guidance. The athletic trainer will also be available to consult with the YMCA’s personal trainers about needs a member may have. The athletic training service will be offered Monday through Friday during set hours. Appointments will be offered on a walk-in basis and will be conducted from the privacy of the second floor MultiGen room in the Y. Also through our partnership with Community Howard Regional Health, the YMCA hosts Lunch and Learns on the first Friday of every month. Registration includes a FREE lunch! Blood pressure screenings are also offered on Mondays and Thursdays, free to our members. For more information on blood pressure screenings, click here!
