April 2016

2016 Heart Run Expo - Nursing StudentsAmerica’s Greatest Heart Run and Walk kicked off their 2016 weekend on Friday, March 4, and SUNY Polytechnic Institute was proudly represented.

Nursing faculty members Kathy Marollo and Francia Reed worked with a graduate nursing student and several undergraduate nursing students at the American Heart Association’s Health and Wellness Expo, which was held at Utica College.

The nursing students, all members of SUNY Poly Nursing Club, provided the Expo participants with information on waist measurement and the related risk of heart disease.

“The enthusiasm, energy, and hard work of the nursing students is a great reflection of the community service rendered by the Nursing Department and SUNY Poly,” said Clinical Assistant Professor Francia Reed.
