Dear Members,

Thank you for your enthusiastic response to the Health Assessment program.

Due to the overwhelming response, the appointment line at Swedish has been maxed out on many occasions. In order to handle the demand Swedish has tripled the appointment line voice-mail box capacity. They have also opened the "after hours" Hotline to take messages during the day in case the voice-mail box again becomes filled.

A request for additional Packets (from the initial 750 provided) has been made to Swedish and should be delivered to Kim Favorite no later then the middle of next week. Due to the increased need for Packets, some of the PFT have delayed going out to some facilities until more Packets arrive. Therefore, if a PFT has not been to your facility, they will be going back out again next week; as soon as they have more Packets. If you feel you have missed the presentation and want information or know that you want to make an appointment and need a Packet, you can contact Kim or any Peer Fitness Trainer.

 To make sure that you are receiving the most current information/documentation please know that once you receive your Packet from a PFT that all other information/documentation you will need will be provided to you by Swedish when they confirm your appointment.

 We have attached some sample documents you might be interested in having.
