HealthQuest

Are you interested in learning how to meditate or ready to start a fitness program? Would you like to have your blood pressure, bone density or cholesterol checked? HealthQuest provides news, education opportunities, screenings and philanthropy information to residents of Hospital District 1. The magazine is published three times a year by Skagit Valley Hospital and the Skagit Valley Hospital Foundation. Here you will find some of the articles that appear in the printed edition as well as a listing for our classes and health screenings offered regularly.
