Employee health fair to include biometric screenings, presenters say
Summary
A presenter described an employee health fair offering educational activities and biometric screenings using finger-prick tests so employees can see basic health numbers without a full blood draw; staff also reported positive public engagement at outreach events.
A presenter announced an upcoming employee health fair that staff said will combine recreational and educational activities for county employees and will offer biometric screenings that use finger pricks rather than full blood draws so participants can learn basic health numbers.
"We're super excited to be able to bring everybody together," the presenter said, describing the mix of activities planned. The presenter explained that biometric screenings will let people "get information about their own health numbers" with minimally invasive finger-prick tests.
Staff also said outreach at public engagement events has produced positive responses, with attendees approaching staff to thank them and sometimes describing personal connections to incidents that prompted outreach.
The transcript did not specify a date, location or registration details for the health fair.
