Health Observances & Healthcare Recognition Dates

This is a current monthly calendar of annual health observances and recognition dates for healthcare. Health observances are days, weeks, or months devoted to promoting particular health concerns. This information will come in handy for community relations programs as well as employee appreciation events. Health professionals, teachers, hospital staff and community groups can use these special times to sponsor health promotion events, stimulate awareness of health risks or focus on disease prevention. Materials available from sponsoring organizations range from a single flyer to packets of promotional materials. To obtain materials, click the link in the "Info Here" column on the right. If you are looking for particular items not listed in this month, please click on the month that you are looking for in the index below. We hope you enjoy planning your year of health care.
