- Blood Pressure Check: Measures the force of blood against artery walls to detect high blood pressure, a major risk factor for heart disease and stroke.
- Hemoglobin A1c: A blood test that measures the average level of blood sugar (glucose) over the past two to three months.
- Cholesterol Test: Evaluates levels of fat in the blood, including LDL (“bad”) and HDL (“good”) cholesterol, to assess risk for heart disease.
- Tobacco Cessation Support: Provides tools and guidance to help individuals quit tobacco, reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and cancer.
- Community Resources: Connects individuals with local programs and services that support healthy lifestyle changes, such as nutrition, physical activity, and stress management.
- Six-Month Follow-Up Re-Screening: Tracks progress and reinforces health goals by reassessing key risk factors and adjusting support as needed.
- Annual Cardiovascular Health Assessment: Offers a comprehensive yearly review of heart health indicators to monitor changes, guide prevention strategies, and promote long-term wellness.
These screenings identify early signs of cardiovascular risk and support long-term health. Blood pressure, A1c, and cholesterol tests help detect hypertension, diabetes, and lipid issues, while tobacco cessation, resource referrals, and follow-ups ensure personalized support and sustained lifestyle changes. Together, they form a comprehensive approach to preventing heart disease and promoting wellness.
