For Patients & Families: Attend a Free Screening

attend a free screening

Throughout the year, the National Kidney Foundation of Illinois hosts a series of free, kidney health screening events. Our one-of-a-kind KidneyMobile®, events take place all across the state of Illinois.

 

A typical screening allows participants to receive a battery of free, comprehensive medical tests, and the opportunity to review his/her screening results with a trained medical professional on-site.

 

As attendees review their screenings with medical personnel, they may receive information on health and wellness; tips on maintaining a healthier lifestyle; and, if necessary, referrals to relevant healthcare providers.
