To those of you who have already called to book an appointment, thank you for your interest and support of this important program.  For those of you who have not yet booked your appointment, we urge you to take IMMEDIATE ACTION as the deadline is quickly approaching.  If you are not registered by the end of May, there is no guarantee that there will be another opportunity.  So far, over 600 members have called to request an appointment and approximately 200 individuals have completed the assessment.  Our goal is for EVERYONE to take advantage of these health assessments.  We need members to call ASAP so that Swedish can provide the necessary doctors and technicians based on the number of appointments scheduled.Due to the number of requests already received for appointments, we anticipate appointments will be extending through the summer, but it is important to note that appointments MUST BE REQUESTED NOW.  The department is issuing a memo that will reiterate the required information about making an appointment.  The information can also be found at http://iaff27.org/content/view/274/67/ .
