Health Risk Assessments
Adults age 50 and older can get a free health risk assessment
through Stay Healthy Seniors. The assessments are a terrific way for
seniors to learn about their risk of developing certain medical conditions.
Those interested complete a series of questions about their
current health and lifestyle. Information from the assessment forms is
then analyzed, and in approximately two weeks seniors receive a letter detailing
the results of their assessment. This includes what their risk is for
developing diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and other health
conditions. Participants are then encouraged to follow up with their
health care provider to discuss the results of the assessment.
Assessments can be completed at the Stay Healthy Center in
Oakdale Mall, Johnson City, during regular business hours. In addition,
throughout the year Stay Healthy Seniors holds special assessment events at
various locations in the community.
Additional information about the health risk assessment is
available from the Stay Healthy Center at 607.763.6383. |
