Screenings will be from 6:30 to 11:30 a.m. Feb. 14 and 20 in Grand Hall, Rice Memorial Center.

Employees can get a confidential review of their blood pressure, body composition, blood analysis, height and weight. They also can opt for tests of their C-reactive protein levels, bone density (for postmenopausal women) and prostate-specific antigen levels (for men). Results will be presented in a personalized health profile.

The program is free to the first 250 benefits-eligible faculty and staff to enroll. Sign up by contacting Tiffany Scimmons, human resources specialist, at tlscimmons@rice.edu or 713-348-4092. Note the time you would like for your screening as well as your name, mail stop, employee ID number, date of birth and gender. Also indicate which optional tests you would like, if any.
