A 40-foot mobile RV lab (see photo above) will be parked at the Walgreens Pharmacy in White Center today (Mon. June 29th), offering FREE health screenings to check for high cholesterol, bone density and other early signs of potential health problems.

Walgreens is located at 9456 16th Ave. SW, and the lab will be there from Noon to 6pm.

No appointments are necessary.

The totally-free health tests are worth $140, and will include checks for:

• Glucose Levels

• Blood Pressure
• Waist Size
• Bone Density
  
• Body mass index

The free service is for anyone 18 and older, and the campaign is sponsored by Walgreens and AARP, which is also offering a free one-year membership to participants.

According to the AARP website:

This new two-year joint national mobile tour features nine customized buses that will travel across 48 states, visiting more than 3,000 communities. One of the nine buses – called the AARP/Walgreens La Gira Del Buen Vecino -is solely dedicated to Puerto Rico.

Last year alone, the Wellness Tour provided more than one million free health screenings to over 180,000 customers. Over the next two years the Tour has a goal to deliver more than 2.5 million free health screenings – a value of over $60 million!

Available screenings are worth over $140* per person, and no appointment is necessary. Screenings include:

• Total Cholesterol Levels • Blood Pressure • Bone Density

• Glucose Levels • Waist Circumference • Body Mass Index

The National Urban League/Walgreens Wellness Tour bus will be on the road this year as well.

The mobile RV’s next stops will be at Walgreens locations in Tacoma and Spanaway.
