PALM COAST, Fla., March 2, 2017 On Feb. 28, more than 150 community members joined Florida Hospital Flagler and WNZF Radio for the seventh annual Health and Fitness Fair.
During the fair, a collector car show greeted visitors at the hospitals south entrance and participants received free health screenings, such as blood pressure checks and hearing testing.
In addition, attendees were able to meet a variety of healthcare professionals and service providers, including experts in cancer, gastroenterology, family medicine, hospice, home health, and more.
This is something we look forward to year after year, said Joanne King, Florida Hospital Flagler chief operating officer. This health fair is such a fun event and its a great way to help our community live happier, healthier lives.
