Health Fairs

ENGAGE EMPLOYEES

Companies can help raise employees' awareness about a variety of health issues and empower them to make positive lifestyle changes during health fairs. VNA Care Network & Hospice's Wellness at Work team can help you organize a worksite health fair by:

  • Providing blood pressure, cholesterol, bone density, blood glucose, and tuberculosis screenings
  • Designing a booth dedicated to a particular health concern
  • Giving flu vaccinations
  • Planning and staffing an entire event
