Caring for the Community on Monday, August 26
Join us at 501 Pharmacy for our “Caring for the Community” event in partnership with the Carolina Association of Student Pharmacists on Monday, August 26, 2019, from 4 until 6 p.m. The pharmacy students from UNC will be offering a variety of free services including blood pressure checks, blood sugar screenings, immunization counseling, and general health education.
A Few Health Facts
According to the American Heart Association, nearly half of all Americans have high blood pressure and many do not know they have it. According to the CDC, more than 30 million people in the United States have diabetes, and one in four of them do not know they have. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to have your blood sugar and blood pressure checked at no cost to you!
Pharmacists are some of the only healthcare providers educated in providing “self-care” and treatment using over the counter products. We are excited to be partnering with the Carolina Association of Student Pharmacists and we hope to see all of you on Monday, August 26!
