What Are Preventative Screenings?
Adorn Medical Services in Washington, DC, embraces preventative care. Adorn feels prevention is a huge part of remaining healthy. You can accomplish preventive care by scheduling your and your children's well-care visits, getting immunized per CDC recommendations, and taking precautions to stay healthy. It means making an appointment with your doctor or Adorn for preventive healthcare or when you are ill for quicker recovery.
There are various age-related preventative screenings available. These screenings help avoid more serious health problems for children and adults, detect diseases before symptoms arise, and are easier to treat. Preventive Screenings are massive in number and range from A to Z.
Early detection of conditions means they are more readily treatable. Screenings can mean X-rays, questionnaires, imaging, blood tests, physical exams, vaccines, genetic and DNA history, dental care, dietary and nutritional counseling, educational help, counseling, and therapies.
The following are only a few of the many preventative screening tools available to children and adults.
The CDC and the USPSTF (United States Preventive Services Task Force) recommend an extensive list of resources and preventive screenings to stay healthy.
- Cancer Screenings
- Immunizations
- Behavioral Screenings
- Alcohol/Drug Screenings
- Heart Disease
- Kidney Disease
- Diabetic Screening
- Osteoporosis Screening
- Mental Health Screenings for adults and children
- Infectious Disease Screening
- Fall Risk Screening
- Hypertension
- Vision and Hearing Screens
- STD Screening
One of the best things you can do for yourself and your children is to have preventative screenings before severe complications develop. We meet with you to determine what screenings are necessary for you and your child. These screenings could be annually. One example is participating in an immunization program to avoid complications from the yearly flu, COVID-19, and other diseases.
Preventative medicine detects disease early before symptoms appear. We find that early detection and treatment save you disease complications, money for medical care, and the time and stress it takes to fight a disease you could have avoided. Preventative screenings cost little to nothing and may save you a lifetime of grief when we identify conditions early.
