Sacred Heart Offers Free Health Screenings to Needy and Elderly

Sacred Heart Health System will provide free health screenings in July at sites in Pensacola, Milton, Century, Miramar Beach and Gulf Shores, Ala. The screening program targets persons who are poor, uninsured or elderly. 

At most locations, Sacred Heart staff will provide screenings to measure blood pressure, blood sugar, total cholesterol and blood count. These screenings are helpful in diagnosing conditions that put people at high risk for heart attack, stroke, diabetes, and other health problems.
