The Southcoast Wellness Van will visit Sippican School on Saturday, April 9.

The van will hold community screenings and vaccinations as part of Southcoast Health's mission to promote the optimal health and well-being of individuals in the communities it serves.

Free mobile health services available by the staff include: blood pressure screenings, cholesterol screenings, teen resource information, glucose (diabetes) screenings, nutritional information and education, health education services, medical physical referrals and vaccinations.

Screenings sponsored by the Southcoast Wellness Van are sometimes held at community locations and not always on the van. Look for signs when arriving at a location if you do not see the van outside.

The van will be at Sippican School, 16 Spring St. from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
