Why Testing Matters

Testing sets a baseline for your health.

Getting tested makes you the best advocate for yourself.

You may have been exposed to contaminated groundwater without knowing it.

TCE and PCE have been found in groundwater throughout Sedgwick County, Kansas.

The 29th & Grove area is one known area of concern where TCE contamination has been found.

If you lived, worked, or spent time in Sedgwick County, you may have come into contact with these chemicals without knowing it.

Free health testing can help you better understand your health and what to do next.

Testing helps:

  • Give clear information about your health.
  • Guide follow-up care if it is needed.
  • Connect you to a primary healthcare provider.

Why should I get tested?

Testing can help track changes in your health over time.

The effects of exposure can depend on many factors:

  • When you were exposed
  • How much exposure did you have
  • How long did your exposure last
  • Personal and lifestyle factors

Having contact with the water does not mean you will develop health problems. Testing can help give you clarity and peace of mind.
