Despite the rain, the Community Health Fair at Oak Orchard Health (OOH) on Saturday, May 31, in Brockport was fun for all, especially for kids and their families. The fair was a convenient way for people to get valuable information, free screenings, and giveaways. One of the most popular was the dental screenings with Dr. Rachel Nozzi and the OOH hygienists.
Though the tables and Kid Zone were moved indoors, the Kiwanis Club of Brockport weathered the storm and served pancakes outdoors throughout the morning. Oak Orchard Health was available for blood pressure screenings, blood glucose checks, vision screenings, and provided information on healthy eating, WIC, and behavioral health. Those with questions about the OOH Patient Portal, were able to get answers.
UR Medicine, UR Dermatology, and UR MobilEyes provided health screenings, including mammograms, skin cancer checks, and eye exams. The Wilmot Cancer Center table got plenty of interest on this important topic.
Fidelis Care Health Insurance was there to provide valuable information — and give away stress balls, pens, and so much more. The Brockport Community Connection was also on hand to connect residents with services, including emergency assistance.
Oak Orchard Health is grateful to Greater Rochester Health Foundation, which sponsored the fair, and to everyone who participated in the event.
