Location
The event will be held at the main campus of Camden Clark Medical Center, located at . Just follow the signs; you can’t miss it. Or, you know, use your GPS. Unless you’re like me and still get lost even with GPS, then good luck! Seriously, though, it’s a big place, so give yourself a little extra time to find parking and the right entrance.
Parking Information

Free Screenings Available
Alright, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty – the free stuff! This year’s Health & Wellness Day has a bunch of screenings on offer. I mean, who doesn’t love free stuff? Especially when it can help you stay healthy. So, what’s on the menu?
Cholesterol Screening
Get your cholesterol levels checked. It’s a quick blood test that can tell you a lot about your heart health. High cholesterol? Not good. But knowing is half the battle, right? They’ll probably give you some tips on how to lower it too. You know, like lay off the bacon… maybe. Okay, definitely.
Blood Glucose Screening
This screening measures your blood sugar levels and helps detect diabetes or pre-diabetes. It’s another simple blood test. Pro tip: maybe avoid that super sugary coffee right before you go. Just a thought. It’s one of those things you kinda dread, but you know you need to do.
Blood Pressure Screening
A quick and easy way to check if your blood pressure is in a healthy range. High blood pressure is a silent killer, they say. And you want to live to see another episode of your favorite show, don’t you? So get it checked. Quick, painless, and informative.
Vision Screening
Having trouble reading the fine print these days? This screening can help identify potential vision problems. It’s not a full eye exam, mind you, but it’s a good starting point. Plus, free glasses! Just kidding. But wouldn’t that be awesome?
Hearing Screening
Can’t hear what people are mumbling? This screening can help detect hearing loss. It’s important to catch these things early. Especially if you want to keep up with all the juicy gossip. I mean, uh, important conversations.
