Community Programs
Whether attending local health fairs, promoting health education, teaming up with local events, or creating community-based programs, it is part of PrimaryPlus’ mission to be community-minded. Below are just a few of the programs available; the list of innovative programs and activities continues to grow as we grow...
Leap / Kidz Care Fair / Scholarships / Cooper Clayton Smoking Program
LEAP™
PrimaryPlus wants our communities to lead healthy lifestyles. The creation of the LEAP program was first designed for employees of PrimaryPlus encouraging them to lead more active, healthier lives. Since then LEAP has been trademarked, marketed and taken out into the public eye for industries like Green Tokai, Comprehend, Augusta & Lewis County School Systems. LEAP gives you an overall scope of your health, teaches you the importance of knowing your numbers, and helps to teach you simple lifestyle changes that will help improve your health through goal setting. In 2005, LEAP was named to the Kentucky Educational Television “Models that Work” program. LEAP is a flexible community program that can be designed to fit any businesses needs. Leap Packet

Kidz Care Fair
Back to School can be an overwhelming experience for both parents and their children. This event was designed by PrimaryPlus to bring a fun twist to the normal, sometimes dreaded back to school physical and shots. The Kidz Care Fair provides parents an opportunity to avoid the hectic rush of back to school physicals and/or immunizations while providing the children with a worry-free, fun-filled, carnival-like experience.
