Ascension All Saints Hospital’s Family Health Night Brings Health Education to the Community

This month, around 300 community members had the opportunity to meet doctors, nurses, and emergency response professionals in a fun, hands-on environment at the Ascension All Saints Hospital Family Health Night.

The goal of this event is to engage and educate community members about health and prevention. It encourages families to educate themselves about staying safe and healthy through interactive activities and demonstrations. Attendees of all ages got an inside look at how emergency situations are handled, and had the chance to connect directly with first responders.

"It's important to educate our local communities about health and safety," said Kristin McManmon, Ascension All Saints Hospital President. "Interactions between the community and our associates, local fire and police departments, and surrounding agencies help teach children valuable skills, like CPR, fire safety, and general public safety awareness."

Highlights of the evening included a teddy bear clinic, interactive ambulance tours with first responders, and hands-on practice with medical tools used within a hospital setting.

The Racine Fire Department, Caledonia Fire Department, the Racine County Sheriff's Office, Caledonia Police Department, Racine Fire Bells, and Bell Ambulance all participated in the event.
