Free Health
Fair offered by Give Medical Ministry
March 27, 2017 (Tipp City, OH) — A free health fair for all members of
the family is being offered by the GIVE Medical Ministry from 9am-12pm
on Saturday, April 22 at the Covington Eagles Hall, 715 Broadway St.
(US Rt. 36), Covington.
Along with valuable health screenings and information, a free healthy
breakfast and door prizes will be offered to those attending. The
annual health fair is an outstanding opportunity for local residents to
improve their health and to learn about services provided by local
health organizations.
More than 25 healthcare organizations are participating in the fourth
annual GIVE Health Fair. All members of the family can participate in
free health screenings for hearing, vision, cholesterol and blood
glucose levels, skin cancer, blood pressure, lung capacity, physical
strength, posture and more.
Literature and consultations will be available on topics such as
cancer, sleep disorders, nutrition, nursing home care, ear-nose-throat
issues, access to free clinics, medication review by pharmacists and
free medical supply delivery.
If you or a loved one is taking multiple medications, pharmacy
professors and students from Cedarville University - School of Pharmacy
will be available to review your medications and discuss proper
administration, potential drug interactions and proper disposal of old
medications. To take advantage of this review, bring your medications
with you to the GIVE Health Fair.
New to this year’s health fair is a “Drug Drop Program.” Bring your
unwanted or outdated medications (pills only) to the health fair for
proper disposal by officers from the Miami County Sheriff’s Department
who will be at this event.
Contact Tom Downs, GIVE Medical Ministry, at give@ginghamsburg.org,
937.473.5195 or 1000 Mote Drive, Covington with any questions
concerning the health fair.
