IN BETWEEN RIDES, food and music, take the time to learn more about
your health. Visit the Health Horizons section in South Wing B to
participate in daily health screenings including cholesterol, glucose,
blood pressure and body mass index (BMI). Additional screenings will
be available on a day-by-day basis, including Senior Day on Tuesday,
Aug. 25. While most health screenings will be free, a few, including
those in our mammography and heart health vans, will have a fee.
"It's a quick way to get a better look at your health," said
Tommy Huelsman, special events and community outreach manager
at KentuckyOne Health. "In only 30 minutes, people can receive
screenings, meet a physician and schedule an appointment, or get
information about healthy living and how to make healthier decisions."
Physicians, nurses and other health care specialists will be on hand
to answer questions about your health and offer suggestions for
improvement. Visitors can also walk through our inflatable heart and
colon exhibits to learn more about heart disease and colon cancer.

services, visit KentuckyOneHealth.org/statefair, or follow us
