Free A1C Screening and Diabetes Education Offered in Orleans on November 13
Barnstable County Public Health Nurses will offer a free diabetes education presentation and A1C screening on Friday, November 13, 2026, at the Orleans Council on Aging & Senior Center.
The event will begin with a brief presentation on diabetes basics, followed by free A1C screenings. An A1C test measures average blood sugar (glucose) levels over the past two to three months and can help identify prediabetes and diabetes, as well as provide information about how well diabetes is being managed.
The screening involves a simple finger stick, and fasting is not required. Participants should plan to attend the educational presentation before receiving their screening.
