Your screening will be performed by a Registered Nurse who has been specially trained to provide this service. We will do the following tests and assessments, and spend time reviewing what the numbers mean for your heart health.
• Blood pressure
• Body mass index
• Depression and stress level assessment
• Nutrition review
• Smoking and alcohol assessment
• Family medical history review
• Blood test for glucose, lipid profile, and
cholesterol levels
Participants will leave with a personalized action plan including risk factor reduction materials, steps for improving heart health, and referrals for further cardiac care as needed.
Cost is $45. Grants are available through a two-question approval process at time of scheduling.
To schedule an appointment, call (231) 935-8561.
