Health Maintenance Services for Older Americans

UMDHU receives federal Title III funds to provide health maintenance services to individuals 60 years old and older. The funding is to provide foot care at the Health Unit or as a home visit. In Divide County UMDHU also provides weekly medication set up and blood pressures for health maintenance clients.

Services are not denied to anyone based on ability to pay. Donations are accepted, which allows services to be provided to a greater number of people. The suggested Donations are:

Blood Pressure/ Pulse $3.00 (60 and older) $5.00 (under 60)

Medication Setup $11.00 (60 and older) $21.00 (under 60)
