Students from Barry University's Master of Science in Anesthesiology Class of 2017 assisted at St. Margaret Mary's Blood Drive and Blood Pressure Screening in May of this year as part of the Winter Park Community Outreach Program in Orlando, FL.

Barry students provided screenings for blood pressure, review of medications and lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise. This event was held in conjunction with One Blood Organization.

Health screenings are becoming highly regarded among health insurances companies. The continued efforts for collaboration among faith communities and universities, such as Barry can leave a lasting impression for those in our communities.
