The National Kidney Foundation is offering a free kidney health screening through its KEEP Healthy program. KEEP Healthy is the National Kidney Foundation’s (NKF) community-based educational initiative to raise awareness about the kidneys, risk factors for kidney disease, and steps to take to keep kidneys healthy and reduce risk.
Technical, General and Bilingual volunteers needed. 17 or over only. Volunteers needed to assist screening participants with filling out paperwork, check participants in, help participants through the process, measure height and weight, take blood pressure and record readings on paperwork. These volunteers must have legible writing and some may have to stand for an extended period of time.
RNs, Physicians, NPs, Dieticians and Physician Assistants also needed.
Volunteer training will be held before the event at 9:00 am with the actual screening beginning on SATURDAY, October 7, 2017 at 10:00 am - 2:00 pm (volunteers asked to plan to stay until 2:30 pm).
