The Korean Health Education, Information & Referral Center will hold its seventh annual Children’s Health Care Fair at Ardmore Park on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The fair will feature free health services for children up to age 16, including vision and blood pressure tests, pediatric counseling and free immunizations provided by the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services Immunization Unit.

Health care providers who speak Korean, Spanish and English will be available to provide assistance. Last year, 500 children participated.

Parents should bring their children’s immunization records. No immunizations will be administered without proper documentation.

KHEIR works primarily with Korean-speaking clients who face language and other barriers that make it difficult to get proper health care services, said Jane Kim, a KHEIR health educator.

The entrance to Ardmore Park and Recreation Center is at 3250 W. San Marino St.

Information: (213) 732-5648.
