Point Park University Community Invited to Annual Health Fair Monday, February 22, 2010

The Point Park University annual Health Fair will be held on Wednesday, March 10th from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. in the Lawrence Hall Ballroom. Play games, win prizes and learn more about nutrition, hygiene and staying healthy from the physical therapists, trainers and dentists on hand for the event.

"We have held the Health Fair at least since I have been at Point Park, which is nine years," said Jeanne Beveridge RN, BSN, coordinator of the Student Health Center. "This is a great opportunity to raise awareness within the University community about the health and wellness services that we have available on campus and through off-campus service providers."

The Health Fair is designed to be both informational and engaging. Health care professionals will discuss the "how-tos" of interacting with health and wellness service providers. Find out the best questions to ask your health care professional to maximize your experience and your care.

There will also be a range of activities from the competitive, including jump rope contests and ping pong tournaments, to the relaxing, including foot massages and fingernail painting. Attendees can enjoy free food along with door prizes and giveaways.
