Wellness Center Offers Cholesterol Screenings

18 October 2004 -- The Wellness Center is continuing to offer Cholesterol Screenings (Lipid Profiles) to all JSU Faculty, Staff, their dependents and Retirees on Tuesdays during the Fall Semester. All screenings are conducted in the Wellness Center (204 A Pete Mathews Coliseum). The screening is quick and easy and requires approximately 5 minutes of your time. The only "rules" to follow are:

• At least a 12-hour fast prior to drawing the blood sample is necessary.
  
  
• The blood sample will be drawn during the morning hours (starting at 7:00 a.m.); thus, nothing should be taken by mouth ( except for water) after 7:00 p.m. the night before.

Please call the Wellness Center at 5114 for more information or to schedule an appointment for screening.
