Students are able to educate participants regarding hypertension, cholesterol, and diabetes complications. The clinical session consists of students learning how to perform accurate blood pressure, Cholesterol and Diabetes screening measurements.
Business Health Screening
Responding to the need to address chronic disease at business worksites, we partner with local businesses in Washtenaw County to provide a for-fee Health Screening service for their employees. The screening consisted of blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes. The employees are provided with information about their screening results, encouraged to engage in healthy eating, increase physical activity, maintain medication regime, and instructed to following up with their physician. Through this effort we can work directly with their Wellness Director to discuss future Wellness Programs and Health Education workshops for their employees.
