Hoffman Estates, IL – Residents can take advantage of a free bone density screening event this month at the Hoffman Estates Branch Library. The screenings, hosted by the Village of Hoffman Estates, will be held on Thursday, Nov. 20, and are available by appointment only.
According to village officials, the screening takes less than five minutes and uses either a wrist or finger measurement. Participants will receive an immediate copy of their results along with a brief consultation from a nurse.
The free service aims to help adults monitor their bone health and identify early signs of osteoporosis or related issues. Officials encourage residents—particularly older adults or those with risk factors for bone loss—to schedule early, as appointment slots may fill quickly.
Residents can call 847-781-4850 to reserve their free appointment. The screenings will take place at the Hoffman Estates Branch Library, located within the village.
This community health effort is part of Hoffman Estates’ broader initiative to promote preventive care and wellness resources for local residents.
