Project Summaries: Men's Health

  
 
 
 
The interns presented information on general hygiene, disease prevention, hypertension, heart disease, smoking cessation, oral hygiene, diabetes, and general health awareness. Individual interviews were conducted with the veterans and their progress was tracked throughout the project. The interns assisted the veterans in addressing specific issues such as medical appointments, job searching, and living arrangements. Educational brochures were also handed out during each presentation with a list of the available resources. The interns also took part in the daily operations of the service center, including intakes of clients, updates on existing clients, and meal distribution.
