followup

Lifesigns is keenly aware that a single encounter once a year may fail to provide adequate tools and information for clients to manage and reduce their health risks. We pride ourselves on effective follow-up and optimal risk reduction. Following your exam, you may experience follow-up with:

The Lifesigns Physician

Clients are often invited to return to Lifesigns to re-evaluate blood cholesterol or some other aspect of their exam. Clients may also be referred to their personal physician or to a specialist to evaluate some aspect of their exam that requires longer-term, follow-up care.

The Lifesigns Nurse Preventionist

Our nurse practitioners are prepared to respond to the early signs of hypertension, diabetes or heart disease with lifestyle programs and, in some instances, with medication. Their repertoire includes a Lifesigns-branded course on nutrition and the ability to prescribe preventive-care medications such as Chantix, the most effective smoking-cessation medication.

The Lifesigns Wellness Coach

For our corporate clients, onsite wellness coaching provides the most effective risk-factor follow-up available. No one is better prepared to follow blood pressure, encourage lifestyle changes or provide the tools for stress reduction. Through a year-over-year health risk assessment, the worksite coach is also in an excellent position to provide a gentle reminder when the time arrives to repeat certain screening exams.
