Denver, Colorado Health and City Information

Denver is a county-city in Colorado, as well as the state's capitol. Although the city is actually considered relatively healthy, it still faces some critical health problems. The rate of adult obesity is 16%, which is actually lower than the national average. The percentage of people living without insurance is 14%, which, although not extremely high, still suggests there is inadequate access to medical insurance. Approximately 21% of the population also smokes, which although lower than the national average of 24%, is still a health concern.

Although Colorado is a relatively healthy city, it is highly suggested that medical professionals in Denver are required to be certified in CPR, First Aid and BLS (Basic Life Support).
