How Does the Passport Program Work?

The Passport to Wellness™ screening and assessment program can be implemented in a variety of ways, but it is best used in a "fair" or "expo" format. It can be used as a free-standing event or integrated within an existing senior expo or health fair (e.g., Mature Lifestyle Expo, Senior Health Fair, etc.). The written instructions provided are all-inclusive. If preferred, we can provide a turn-key version of the program.

Where Is The Passport Program Implemented?

The program should be held in a spacious and pleasant environment sufficient in size that can comfortably accommodate 20-30 screening stations and the anticipated number of participants. Convenient parking and easy building accessibility are recommended.

When Should the Passport Program Be Held?

It is desirable to have the program event held at least bi-annually. Your target group's availability to participate should guide your decision making (e.g., for retirees 65+, 9am-3pm mid-week or Saturday; for employed individuals 55-64+, 7-9pm mid-week or 9am-noon Saturday).
