Lifeline Screening
Life Line Screening will be coming to Holy Name Church on
Thursday, May 1, beginning at 9:00 a.m. They offer potentially life-saving ultrasound screenings of the arteries and three simple blood tests to help identify risk of stroke, heart disease and diabetes. Ultra sound and Doppler equipment is used to screen 1) the Carotid
Arteries, 2) arteries in the legs for Peripheral Arterial Disease, 3) Abdominal Aortic Artery for an aneurysm and 4) bone density for Osteoporosis. A physician typically will not order an ultrasound evaluation for someone who has no symptoms of vascular disease. Life Line Screening enables you to be checked for vascular disease and osteoporosis as part of your own personal prevention plan. Results of the screenings are sent to your home. Fliers with price information will soon be available at the Church entrance.
Reservations are required— please call 1-800-324-1851 to register or for more information.
