Our risk for many health issues – including cancer – increases with age. As we get older, medical appointments and check-ups frequently involve screenings for cancer, and adults over 66 receive more than half of all cancer diagnoses.

 Every 40 seconds, someone in the U.S. has a stroke.

It could happen on your street, in your workplace, at a store where you shop — anywhere.

  Summer is now in full swing, and in Arizona, that means extreme heat. We know that our region gets hot; the last decade has been the warmest on record for the southwest United States.

Kingman Regional Medical Center (KRMC), in partnership with the KRMC Foundation, is conducting a research study to find out how much of our community has had COVID-19. The study involves collection of a blood sample from participants, which will be tested for antibodies specific to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.

Health researchers think that individuals are avoiding medical facilities – even when they need care – for fear of contracting the coronavirus. Regular healthcare is just as important as ever. In our hospital and outpatient clinics, KRMC takes many measures to limit the spread of illness and keep patients safe. Aging patients or those with chronic conditions should keep up with their regular screenings and check-ups.

The VA MISSION Act improves access to healthcare for Veterans, both in VA facilities and in their own communities. Part of the MISSION Act involves the VA Community Care Network (CCN). The CCN is a network of healthcare providers connected to the VA to ensure Veterans receive timely, high quality healthcare. Kingman Regional Medical Center (KRMC) is a proud member of the VA Community Care Network. As a community provider, KRMC can provide certain needed health services to eligible Veterans in our area, reducing travel time and wait time for appointments. Note: all care must be coordinated through the VA.
