The first 'Heart Healthy Auto Bureau Blood Pressure Screening' will be offered at the Downtown Auto Bureau today.

Erie County Clerk Mickey Kearns and Mercy Hospital have teamed up to offer free blood pressure screenings at auto bureaus across Erie County in honor of American Heart Month in February.

Mercy Hospital nurses will offer blood pressure screenings and heart healthy information for participants. The screenings are free, confidential, and open to the public and Clerk's office employees.
