During April, Sacred Heart Health System will provide free heart-health screenings at several locations in Pensacola, Milton and Fort Walton Beach for adults who are poor, elderly, or uninsured.
Heart-health screenings will measure blood pressure, blood sugar and total cholesterol, and can detect anemia. The screenings are helpful in diagnosing conditions that put people at high risk for heart attack, stroke, diabetes and other health problems.
Following is the April schedule:
• April 9 from 8 to 10:30 a.m. at Loaves & Fishes, 257 E. Lee St., Pensacola.
• April 11 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Beulah First Baptist Church, 109 McGriff St., Fort Walton Beach.
