Employees at Blount Fine Foods in the Fall River Industrial Park were invited to the fourth Health and Wellbeing Fair  held at the facility on June 16, 2017. Organized by Benefits/Human Resource Manager Michelle Cabral, the event offered employees the opportunity to have their blood pressure and cholesterol checked by a staff member of Southcoast Health Wellness Van as well as to get up-to-date information from representatives of the agencies represented at the Fair. The event also included a circuit training demonstration led by Blount employee Jennifer Botelho. "We're really happy that our employees enjoy this so much" stated Cabral who estimated that most of the 300 employees took advantage of the Fair. Michelle is an active member of the South Coast Worksite Health and Wellness Collaborative and is a past president of the South Coast Human Resources Council. Click here for a three-minute video.
