Pharmacy Students Educate Patients at the UMES Fall Festival

On September 28th, 2019, the Student National Pharmaceutical Association (SNPhA) in collaboration with the Christian Pharmacist Fellowship International (CPFI) participated in the 2019 UMES fall festival. This fair took place at the UMES campus in Princess Anne, Maryland, and involved multiple departments at the university. The events included a campus walking tour, health fair, and cooking demonstrations. After the walking tour, attendees stopped at different vendor tables to learn about disease prevention and healthy eating. Blood pressure readings, BMI screening, and Type 2 diabetes risk assessments were conducted during this event as well. Overall, this was a successful event and the students educated 42 individuals.
