Senior citizens will have the opportunity to receive free medical screening and meet local health care providers in the second annual Sun City/Menifee Senior Health Expo, scheduled for April 26 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event will take place in the Sun City Civic Association's North Town Hall, located at 26850 Sun City Blvd. A complimentary lunch will be provided for participants, courtesy of the sponsoring SCCA.
Chuck Reutter, representing the SCCA, is excited about the number of vendors committing to the event and the service it will provide for area seniors.
"The purpose of the event is to provide for the people of Menifee -- particularly seniors -- information that will enable them to live a better life," Reutter said. "There will be doctors, medical supply companies, massage ... it will show people what's out there.
"When you go to a medical office, you get committed to what's there. This is a more comfortable way for people to see what's available."

I represented Menifee Valley Medical Center in displaying a booth for the health fair. We had free carotid screening, blood testing for chlosterol, nutrition, lung function testing, blood pressure, oxygen testing and more. We handed out advance medical directives so seniors have a choice in their health care. We also handed out medication and blood pressure log sheets so it would be easier for them to keep track of. All of these testing and informational measures can have a huge impact on the seniors health. We at Menifee hospital will continue to help the seniors live a healthier life.
