Las Vegas, NV – (September 5th, 2017) – The Well Care Group is proud to offer FREE depression screenings every Friday in the month of September from 1p-3p at the Las Vegas Clinic in observance of Suicide Prevention Month. Suicide is the 6th leading cause of death for Nevadans. Males make up 80% of suicide deaths at an average rate of 33.3 per 100,000. Nevada seniors over 60 have the highest suicide rate in the nation, over double the national average for the same age group (Source: Department of Health and Human Services).

Well Care Services will be holding two special events in September. The first event will be held on September 14, 2017 between 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm at the Salvation Army apartment complex, which is a one-year temporary housing program. They will be offering services, checking availability and scheduling appointments. There will be therapist on site to assist with screenings (i.e. depression and anxiety). The second event will be held on September 21, 2017 between 1:00pm and 6:00pm for the homeless population at the Salvation Army.  The Well Care Group will be providing free meals that are expected to feed 250 to 300 homeless people.  Again, they will be offering services, screening people and if applicable getting them into their CSP or Annex programs.
