These are staggering statistics. Blue Care Network will help educate women about these health concerns by offering free Women's Wellness Fairs to five Michigan cities, beginning Monday, Oct. 9 at the Hyatt Regency-Dearborn, Fairlane Town Center Drive in Dearborn. Events such as these wellness fairs encourage women to gain the knowledge and motivation needed to make informed decisions about their health. Women attending the wellness fair can receive free screening tests for high blood pressure, osteoporosis, depression, skin cancer, vision acuity and hearing loss. In addition, information will be available on breast cancer, cholesterol, heart disease, osteoporosis, weight management, domestic violence and menopause.
Participants also can enjoy a complimentary massage.
The fair moves to four other cities after Dearborn. The company is the HMO affiliate of Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.
