Register now for your free assessment for the UBC Travelling Health Fair for faculty and staff. There’s five different types of free, confidential, individual assessments/consultations offered this year in 20-30 minute appointments:
Please note that some assessments/consultations require participants to fast in advance of the screening or wear loose clothing.
We ask that you register for one consultation/screening so that we can offer a health assessment to as many different faculty or staff as possible, since space is limited. If you wish to have more than one assessment or consultation, please visit us at the Welcome Table on the day of the fair as we will be able to register you for additional sessions (if space is still available).
To register, please go to www.bit.ly/UBCTHF
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Suzanne Jolly, Health Promotion Coordinator at 604-822-8762 or suzanne.jolly@ubc.ca.
