Optim Medical Center-Screven invites the community to Healthcare Explorer: Live Well with Optim, a free, interactive event designed to showcase the wide range of care and services available right here in Sylvania—far beyond the ER.

The event will be held Thursday, November 6, from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. in the courtyard at Optim Medical Center-Screven, 215 Mims Road, Sylvania, GA 30467. The event will take place rain or shine and will move indoors if needed due to weather.

Healthcare Explorer offers a hands-on opportunity to meet Optim providers and staff, explore the latest in local healthcare, and connect with community partners offering valuable resources and demonstrations.

Event Highlights:

• Physical + Occupational Therapy: Get moving with hands-on mobility and posture demos.

• Swing Bed / Mobility Courtyard: Learn how short-stay rehabilitation keeps recovery local.

• Imaging + Lab: Take a peek behind the scenes at the technology supporting your care.

• Primary Care: Receive a flu shot, check vital signs, and talk about preventive health with teams from the clinics of Dr. Sidney Morgan, Dr. Prakul Chandra and Dr. Sherma Peter.

• Interventional Pain Management: Meet Dr. Jessica Reyes and learn about pain management services available locally.

• Orthopedics: Pick up information about Optim’s orthopedic clinic and services available in Sylvania.

• Community Partners: Visit the Mammography Bus, Ross Drugs, and the Screven County Health Department for additional health and wellness resources.

As part of the event, Optim will also host a food drive benefiting the Screven County Community Collaborative, Inc. Attendees who wish to participate are encouraged to bring a canned good or non-perishable food item to donate and help support local families in need.

Attendees can pick up a Healthcare Explorer Card at check-in and get it stamped at each booth to enter for hourly drawings for Premium Padded Folding Reclining Camping Chairs (valued at $50 each) and a Grand Prize drawing for a Yeti Hopper Flip Soft Cooler valued at $375.

“Healthcare Explorer is about helping people discover just how much care is available right here at home,” said Optim Medical Center-Screven Chief Administrative Officer, Lagina Evans. “It’s a great way to meet our team, learn about our services, and give back to the community we serve.”
