Student-Run Free Medical Clinic at UConn
On May 1st, from 9am to 5pm, we seek to run a free clinic at UConn for anybody to participate in. This will take place on the University Seal, outside the main entrance of Homer Babbidge library. The clinic seeks to provide the UConn community with an opportunity to get a basic assessment. The clinic will measure heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, and address mental health concerns. The clinic will be run by EMTs certified to take these assessments. This event is open and accessible to all undergraduate students. This event is funded by USG. If you require an accommodation to participate in this event please contact Kaushik Mahesh at kaushik.mahesh@uconn.edu by April 25th. Thank you!
