Methodist Community Health Fair Offers Screenings for Chronic Conditions, Fills Need

On June 28, the Methodist Community Health Clinic partnered with Kountze Commons and the Nebraska Methodist College Mobile Diabetes Center to offer a free community health fair. Attendees were screened for chronic conditions, received the COVID-19 vaccine and had access to the Kountze Memorial Lutheran Church Community Food Pantry.

With many community events and mobile screenings sidelined last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the community health fair supported Methodist’s goals of catching people up on missed screenings and breaking down barriers to health care by meeting people where they are.
