Students and faculty from three Southeastern Louisiana University academic departments recently joined forces April 27 to provide health screenings for children at the Regina Coeli Migrant Head Start Center in Amite as part of Southeastern’s service learning initiative. Faculty Ann Carruth, Barbara Hyde and Cathy Holland, School of Nursing; Stuart Stewart, foreign languages, and Rebecca Davis, communication sciences and disorders, brought students to work at the event. Nursing students provided weight, height, blood pressure, hemoglobin and vision screenings, while CSD students conducted hearing tests. Above, Spanish student Tiffany Slocum of Hammond, who served as a translator, helped to comfort and calm children at the various screening stations.
