The community was invited to come out and enjoy a day filled with fun, entertainment and information during the annual Wyckoff Heights Medical Center Health Fair on Aug. 15.
More than 70 information booths from the hospital’s departments as well as community vendors lined Stockholm Street between Wyckoff and St. Nicholas avenues on the Ridgewood/Bushwick border. Ramon Rodriguez, the hospital’s CEO, was on hand to greet guests.
Many of the booths provided presentations and educational materials as well as free screenings for blood pressure, cholesterol, body mass index, bone density and blood glucose to more than 500 visitors throughout the day. There were also activities for children including face painting, music and raffles.
