Employee Wellness Biometric Screening
A biometric screening is a brief yet comprehensive health assessment designed to gather vital information about an individual’s current health status. This screening provides valuable insights into potential risk factors for chronic conditions.
The screening itself is not diagnostic, but it can serve as an important preventive tool, helping individuals identify potential concerns early and make informed decisions about their well-being.
The Employee Wellness office uses a testing device that requires a small amount of blood from a quick fingerstick. Results are available within 5 minutes. This device meets all relevant National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) guidelines for precision and accuracy.
This biometric screening will provide you with information about your:
- Fasting total cholesterol
- HDL cholesterol
- LDL cholesterol
- Triglycerides
- Fasting glucose
Your blood pressure will also be tested during this screening.
