Health Fair Outline
Intake/Registration:
We securely register our clients so they can begin the client navigation process.
Medical/Social History:
We ask about the client's medical history, which includes the client and family members' past medical history. We also ask about social history and information such as insurance status, English proficiency, and household situation. This is important so that medical students and nursing students are able to have a better picture of the client and recommend more effective and specific courses of action during consult.
BMI, Body Fat%, WHR:
We measure the client's BMI and Body Fat % using the client's information including age, gender, height, and weight. We also calculate the patient's wait-to-hip ratio by measuring their waist and hip.
Blood Pressure (Medical/Nursing Students):
Our medical and nursing students measure the patient's blood pressure manually, using a blood pressure cuff and stethoscope.
Consultations and Questions:
Our medical and nursing students take the information we have recorded throughout the client navigation process and consult our clients under the guidance of the attending faculty (from David Geffen School of Medicine/UCLA School of Nursing). This is also a time for our clients to ask any questions about their health.
Checkout
We thank our clients and leave them with a resource folder with their measurements from the intake, information provided during their consult, referrals to local low-cost/free clinics, and health education packet with information on diseases common among the API populations and lifestyle tips.
