Healthy Community Coalition of Greater Franklin County recently announces its July schedule for Mobile Health Unit outreach events. Staff will offer services such as blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose checks; cancer prevention, nutrition, physical activity and tobacco information; one-on-one health counseling and information; and assistance with referrals to the Maine Breast and Cervical Health Program and other health assistance programs.

Additional services include colon cancer screening kits for those who qualify and body composition analysis. The test kits, a less invasive way to screen for colon cancer, can be completed in the privacy of one’s own home. Body composition analysis allows participants to see total weight and how many pounds of that weight are made up of muscle, fat, and water. It can track changes in muscle and fat tissue, and physical fitness improvements when weight may not change, according to a HCC news release.

The Mobile Health Unit will offer the following health screenings: Farmington, Save-A-Lot, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Wednesday, July 1; Wilton Food Bank, 9 a.m.-noon Thursday, July 2; Wilton Food City 12:30-3:30 p.m. Thursday, July 2; Industry Food Bank, 9-11 a.m. Monday, July 6; Fairbanks Food Bank, noon-2 p.m. Monday, July 6; Rangeley Food Bank, 10 a.m.-noon Tuesday, July 7; Rangeley IGA, 12:30-3 p.m. Tuesday, July 7; Phillips Food Bank, 9 a.m.-noon Thursday, July 9; Edmund’s Market in Phillips, noon-3 p.m. Thursday, July 9; Sandy River Farm Supply in New Sharon, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Monday, July 13; Livermore Falls Food City, 10 a.m.-1:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 14; Livermore Falls Food Bank, 2-4 p.m. Tuesday, July 14; Eustis Food Bank, 10 a.m.-noon Thursday, July 16; Fotter’s Market in Stratton, 12:30-3 p.m. Thursday, July 16; Salem Food Bank, 1-4 p.m. Tuesday, July 21; and Farmington Summer Fest, 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, July 25.
