As a new school year approaches, Walmart invites Rio Rancho residents a chance to get health checks at Walmart Wellness Day on Saturday, July 23.
Customers can receive free glucose, cholesterol, BMI and blood pressure screenings as well as COVID-19 vaccines and affordable immunizations like shingles, pneumonia, tetanus, hepatitis, HPV and flu at pharmacies in nationwide, including Rio Rancho.
Walmart’s quarterly Wellness Day event will take place in more than 4,600 pharmacies across the country. The event will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Select stores will also feature vision screenings to make it even easier for customers to access the resources they need.
Among local stores: Walmart at 901 Unser Blvd., Neighborhood Market, 1115 NM Highway 528 SE; and in Bernalillo, 460 NM Highway 528.
The goal of Walmart Wellness Day is to encourage customers to get healthy and stay on a healthy track by helping them know their numbers and then seek care to improve their lifestyles. Knowing your numbers is just a start but armed with that information you can make decisions and track your health improvement.
