Community Outreach – NSU Interprofessional Health Screenings held in Miramar
Nova Southeastern University College of Pharmacy students from SNPhA, SCCP, and CPFI collaborated with Public Health Students from PHSA and DO students from NSU’s Neuropsych club came together on January 15 to hold the 2nd Annual St. Bartholomew Health Fair in Miramar.
Under the supervision of Jose Valdes, Pharm.D., the students offered blood pressure and blood glucose screening as well as BMI counseling and poster presentations on the HPV vaccine and Diabetes. Approximately 50 participants were screened and educated. Additionally, Walgreens was represented by Alie Darbouze, M.D., who provided participants with immunizations.
“This was a great opportunity to collaborate with several colleges housed in HPD, and serve the community of Miramar,” said Dr. Valdez. Special recognition go to Hien Vy Phan Ngoc, Paige Swalley, and Vladimyr Pierre for organizing and coordinating this event.
