Faculty members and students from the nursing program at 两性色午夜 East Liverpool volunteered during the recent Canfield Fair by conducting free blood pressure screenings at a booth sponsored by the Ohio Nurses Association, District Three, in the fair鈥檚 Medical Building.
The volunteer effort was initiated and organized by Angela Douglass, senior lecturer of nursing on the East Liverpool campus, assisted by Assistant Professor Diana Stewart. The students are enrolled in the associate degree in nursing program.
Douglass noted that the East Liverpool students conducted nearly 500 blood pressure screenings during their time at the fair.
