Women's Health Night is a free health expo that is open to the public. This year marks the 20th anniversary of WHN. The event enables participants to improve their health through free, on-site health screenings (including a skin cancer screening), fitness/yoga demonstrations, and an opportunity to speak with numerous health care providers (get contacts for possible shadow opportunities!), social service, and health agencies from the Bloomington/Normal community. I encourage everyone to stop by and attend. It's truly a great event that brings in people from all across the community! It's an amazing chance for college students to learn what the BloNo community has to offer and see how they can get involved. If that wasn't enough to catch your attention, this year there will be tons of giveaways including an apple watch, bike + trailer, gift cards (Destihl, Starbucks, Baxter's, Garlic Press etc), gift baskets from Fox n Hounds, Beau Cheveaux, Refine 309, Uptown Gifts, Medici etc, a Scooter, yoga mats and numerous other prizes/giveaways! This is a great opportunity to get any required hours. Please consider signing up and helping out a great cause! <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14CcViH5aM-CzJNs3oCpT7If6vltWf7ZDOuBiFA4RJQ8/edit?ts=5ad39211#gid=0" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14CcViH5aM-CzJNs3oCpT7If6vltWf7ZDOuBiFA4RJQ8/edit?ts=5ad39211#gid=0</a></div><div><br></div><div>Point of Dispensing (POD) Full Scale Exercise I wanted to send this information again regarding our upcoming Point of Dispensing (POD) Full Scale Exercise to be held at ISU Redbird Arena on the morning of 9/14. I wanted to check to see if any of your staff/ students would be interested in participating as volunteer POD clients during the exercise. We will have a registration survey available soon but below I have listed the available shifts. Also, we will be providing lunch for those still there at the end of the exercise. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you. ◠8:15 – 11:45 (Shift A) ◠8:15 – 10:15 (Shift B) ◠9:45 – 11:45 (Shift C) David Hopper, Emergency Preparedness Coordinator McLean County Health Department Office: 309-888-5987 Cell: 309-838-7945 Email: <a href="mailto:david.hopper@mcleancountyil.gov" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">david.hopper@mcleancountyil.gov</a> If a serious medical condition were to suddenly affect many people, such as in the case of an outbreak of pandemic flu or anthrax exposure, the university may need to distribute medicines to thousands of people in a very short period of time. A Point of Dispensing (POD) site is a federally instituted best practice model designed to provide medications, vaccines, or medical supplies to a large community of healthy people during a health emergency. POD sites will be activated in order to provide medication and/or medical supplies to the healthy community prior to the onset of illness in order to decrease illness and prevent death. POD sites are locations that are both familiar and easily accessible to the community (i.e. schools, community centers, churches, etc.) and are designed to serve as a place for the public to come and receive their medications, vaccines and medical supplies. The ultimate goal of a POD is to quickly provide these items to a large number of people in a short period of time.</div><div><br></div><div>Other helpful information: ◠5 outside service hours a semester ○ Email these hours to Taylor with the number of hours you did and the kind of service you did! ◠If you are involved in other organizations and hold a leadership position, you can get 2 leadership points! ○ Email these hours to Nicole with the organization and your position! ◠If you want to volunteer to be a pledge parent, please fill out the survey!
