Representatives from Beebe’s Community Outreach team will be onsite at the health fair to provide free flu shots and free health screenings including vision, blood sugar (for diabetes), cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, bone density and lung cancer screening eligibility.

Other Beebe team members and valued community partners will offer educational materials on diabetes, physical therapy services, overdose prevention resources, insurance programs, vision screenings, helicopter tours and more.
