Free Carotid Artery and Blood Pressure Screenings at our Auto Bureaus

As part of American Heart Month in February, the Erie County Clerk's office and Mercy Hospital of
Buffalo teamed up to offer free blood pressure and carotid artery screenings at auto bureaus across the county. 

The rate of strokes resulting in death in Erie County is higher than the national average
and is 60% higher than the NYS average. The Erie County Clerk's Office and the 
Wellness Institute of Buffalo have partnered with Catholic Health System through the 
"Clerk's Wellness Collaborative" to help improve this statistic

Upcoming screenings will be held from 9 am to 1 pm at the following locations:

February 6 - Downtown Buffalo Auto Bureau, 170 Pearl Street, Buffalo
