Sam's Club supports women's health with free “Support Her Health” screenings

BENTONVILLE, Ark. – While men are well known for avoiding the doctor, a recent survey found that 82% of women say they would rather do all of their family’s grocery shopping than go to the doctor.



To help encourage women to prioritize their health and to offer them a convenient way to do so, Sam’s Club is hosting free health screenings on Saturday, Oct. 8 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.  



These “Support Her Health” screenings are confidential and available to both members and the public at all Sam’s Club locations with a pharmacy (618 locations). They are valued at up to $150.



“Women often prioritize their families’ needs and work responsibilities over their own health and wellness but it’s important to ensure regular health checkups don’t fall off the to-do list,” stated Tara Raddohl, senior director, corporate communications, Sam’s Club. “With that in mind, we hope women take advantage of our free in-club screenings this Saturday, as an easy way to learn more about the current state of their health.”



Sam’s Club offered a similar screen for men back in June, as well as other free events during the year, as part of its comprehensive commitment to support health and wellness.
