Patients will have their blood pressure, Body Mass Index (BMI), eyesight, and glucose levels checked in sequence. At the end of the screening process, patients will be able to interact with physicians and receive educational materials about their health. Referrals will be made to Mount St. John’s Medical Centre if needed.
