Med Students Offer Health Screening and Education for the Public<br />
UND medical students offered health screening to customers during a busy Saturday recently at the Grand Forks Walmart. Students<br />
screened many people with tests of blood sugar (glucose), cholesterol and blood pressure. Above, Aaron Stinton, second-year<br />
medical student, checks a customer’s blood pressure. When concerns were detected, people were educated by the students and<br />
advised to consult with their primary care physician where appropriate. Feedback to the medical school faculty included praise and<br />
gratitude for the students’ professionalism, teaching ability, sincere concern, and identifying some significant health issues. Stinton is<br />
the son of Tim and Jenni Krieg of Fargo.
