Healthy Living Fair a Success!








































































On Saturday, February 9 from 1:00pm to 4:00pm, 26 PCC nursing students held an important community service event. Organized by Karen Walker and Carey Kulp, PCC nursing students offered information on cancer, nutrition, diabetes, heart disease, emergency preparedness and the effects of tobacco. In one activity, student nurses guided participants through a health plan interview. Some of the information was also translated into spanish.

Co-sponsors for the event included PCC Student Nurses' Association, AARP, the National Nursing Network Organization, the Oregon Student Nurses' Association, Tuality Healthcare, and the Washington County Medical Reserve Corps.
