Senior Health Fair Set for October 2

United Way of Allen County and Organized Labor have scheduled their annual Senior Health Fair for Friday, October 2, 2009, from 8 a.m. until noon at Turnstone Center for Children and Adults with Disabilities. The 17th Annual Senior Health Fair is sponsored by Parkview Home Health & Hospice and everyone is invited to attend.

Free blood pressure, glucose and colorectal cancer screenings will be available. A blood chemistry test is also available for a $17 fee; this tests liver function, kidney function, cholesterol levels, high density lipoproteins, low density lipoproteins, triglycerides and more.
 
Also during the event, Parkview Home Health & Hospice will give flu shots for $21 and Pneumonia vaccines for $35. Anyone covered by Medicare Part B will not need to pay for these shots.
 
Many health care organizations, such as Aging & In-Home Services, the Arthritis Foundation, Alzheimer’s Foundation and more, will be on hand with information and will have health care professionals available to answer questions.
