St. Claire Hosts Community Health Fair in Olive Hill

Last week, UK St. Claire (SCH) continued the health fair tour of their rural clinics by hosting a Community Health Fair in Olive Hill.

“We are always excited to offer community screenings at the Olive Hill clinic,” said Janie Riggs, Clinic Manager for Primary Care in Olive Hill. “If we can just catch one person during the screening process, it can make a huge difference in the success of their outcome.”

People from the community came out to get immediate screenings on vital health information, such as blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol levels. People also got valuable information about cancer screenings, surgical and non-surgical weight loss options, social services, behavioral health, and more.

SCH will continue to host health fairs at their rural clinics in Owingsville and Frenchburg in the coming weeks. The next health fair will be held on Thursday, July 28, at SCH’s Primary Care Clinic in Owingsville from 11 AM – 2 PM.
