Monitoring your blood pressure is a valuable health tool. It can tell you many things about your health. And it only takes 3 minutes!

Asbury’s Health Ministry offers blood pressure screenings on a regular basis as a valuable way to monitor your own health. On two upcoming Sundays, Cedar Crest College Nursing students will be available in the Parlor to offer blood pressure checks before, between, and after worship services at your convenience.

Sunday, September 19 (9 AM – 12 PM)
Sunday, November 14 (9 AM – 12 PM)

Administrators will be masked and blood pressure cuffs will be wiped with alcohol after each use.

Did you know October is considered the best time to receive a flu shot, as it helps to provide protection throughout flu season? Asbury’s Health Ministry is holding a Flu Shot Clinic on October 3 from 8:30 AM – 12:30 PM in the Aldersgate Room. Flu shots are administered by Michael Silvonek, RPH. For each flu shot, a portion of the fee will be donated to Asbury. A high-dose vaccine is available for seniors.
