Is It Time for a Joint Replacement?
Learn the Signs at Our Lunch & Learn
The BCMH Auxiliary invites you to a free Lunch & Learn at Bates County Memorial Hospital on Thursday, August 21 at 12:00 pm in the BCMH Education Center, 615 W. Nursery Street in Butler. A light lunch will be provided.
Featured speakers:
- Jon Blake, DO, Orthopedic Surgeon
- Laura Noble, FNP-BC, Orthopedic Nurse Practitioner
Dr. Blake and Laura will share practical insight on recognizing when joint pain is more than just everyday wear and tear. The program, “Joint Replacement in 3, 2, 1: Know the Signs Before You Can’t Ignore Them,” will help participants understand what to watch for, when to seek treatment, and what options are available close to home.
Joint pain is common in our community, especially among those who lead active lives on the farm, in the garden, at work, or chasing after grandchildren. But when pain begins interfering with daily activities, it may be time to consider your options. This Lunch & Learn will offer straightforward information and the chance to hear directly from the providers who deliver orthopedic care right here at BCMH.
📞 RSVP by calling 660-200-7007 and leaving a message.
We hope you’ll join us for this informative program, brought to you by the BCMH Auxiliary.
