Aviation and Health Services Unite at the McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Air Show

The McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Air Show, held on May 20 and May 21, 2023, provided attendees with two unforgettable days filled with exhilarating displays and remarkable performances. This captivating event, hosted at the Joint Base, highlighted the incredible talents of aviation enthusiasts and left spectators amazed.

Amidst the excitement, Cooper’s dedicated health team offered a variety of clinical health screenings and education to event-goers. Through Cooper’s partnership with HeroCare Connect, attendees had the opportunity to benefit from blood pressure and cancer screenings, prioritizing their health and gaining valuable insights into their well-being. HeroCare Connect is a partnership between Deborah Heart and Lung Center and Cooper to provide active-duty military, retired military, and their family members with streamlined and accessible health care services.

The McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst Air Show successfully highlighted the synergy between aviation excellence and community wellness. The event not only celebrated the extraordinary talents of our pilots but also emphasized the importance of taking care of one’s health.

We extend our sincere appreciation to all the participants, performers, and the dedicated health team from Cooper’s Community Health, Family Medicine, Respiratory Therapy, and ENT departments for their valuable contributions to the resounding success of this air show. Their commitment to community well-being was evident in their provision of health services and screenings during the event.
