Men's Health Matters

On average, men live five years less than women and face a higher risk of serious conditions like heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and certain cancers. The good news? Many of these conditions are preventable or manageable, especially when caught early.

That’s why regular checkups and screenings aren’t just a good idea - they’re essential.

Protect your health - schedule your screenings today with Izard Regional Hospital. Learn more at www.monroeregionalhospital.com

What is Aphasia?

Aphasia is a language disorder that affects a person’s ability to speak, understand, read, or write, but it does not affect intelligence.

It often occurs after a stroke, head injury, or brain tumor, and can also be linked to progressive neurological conditions. The severity and type of aphasia depend on which part of the brain is affected.

If you or a loved one is experiencing symptoms, early evaluation is key. Visit www.monroeregionalhospital.com to learn more or schedule a consultation.

June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month

Alzheimer’s is a progressive brain disorder that impacts memory, thinking, and behavior - accounting for up to 80% of dementia cases. While it primarily affects people over 65, it is not a normal part of aging.

More than 6 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s, and that number continues to grow. Yet, early signs often go unnoticed - delaying diagnosis, treatment, and vital support.

At Monroe Regional Hospital, we’re here to help you recognize the signs and take the next steps.

Could it Be Scoliosis? Know the Signs.

Scoliosis is more than just poor posture - it’s a condition where the spine curves sideways, often forming an “S” or “C” shape. While it can develop at any age, it’s most often diagnosed in children and teens during growth spurts, particularly between ages 10–15.

If you or a loved one are experiencing these symptoms, early evaluation is key to effective care. Our team at Monroe Regional Hospital is here to help you stand tall and feel your best.
