Interested in an onsite screening?

An onsite health screening appointment typically lasts 10 minutes from beginning to end. Biometrics such as height, weight, blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose (blood sugar) are measured. Trained professionals review individual results to help participants identify next steps to reduce their risk of chronic disease.

A more informed, happy, and healthy workforce:

Employees walk away from a health screening appointment with their numbers in hand and reputable resources of helpful information. They are more likely to report positive feelings about their employer and their role in the company. But benefits extend beyond employees receiving personalized recommendations and a boost in morale.

Biometric screening companies share aggregate reports of employee BMI, blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar numbers with employers. These reports very clearly identify emerging or emergent lifestyle-related health issues affecting your workforce. Your wellness program can be tailored to mitigate specific health concerns such as diabetes or heart disease before they result in higher health care claims, accidents, and employee turnover.

The results of a biometric screening can help individuals and organizations recognize their risk for several chronic health conditions that can be time consuming and costly to treat. Early intervention can prevent or delay disease – a goal that should be shared by employee and employer alike. Yearly screenings provide feedback on a variety of predictors of good health and allow employers to monitor health trends over time.

Participants can expect accurate results from bloodwork obtained through a fingerstick or a venous blood draw (venipuncture), but that is where the similarities end.

Fingerstick tests require just a few drops of blood from a fingertip, very little equipment, and a less invasive, time-consuming, and painful when compared to a venous blood draw. Additionally, results from a fingerstick test are known in a few moments, allowing us to provide immediate feedback. Venous blood draws can take up to 7 days to receive results.

HealthSource  Solutions solely offers fingerstick testing and analysis to clients. Our health screening philosophy is to:

• provide participants their biometric screening values so they “know their numbers.”
• educate participants on what those numbers mean.
• assist participants with next steps and some easy goals.
• drive participants with elevated risks to conversations with their health care provider.

Although biometric screenings are an important piece to maintaining or improving the health of your workforce, they are no substitute for medical care and cannot be used to diagnose health problems. If an employee receives results that are out of the normal range, they are always encouraged to follow-up with a physician.

Communication and marketing are key for successful health screening events. We provide communication tools and templates that include, but are not limited to:

• A CEO letter to all employees
• A management/supervisor memo
• Flyers
• Email communications
• Talking points for managers and supervisors (to address at team meetings and encourage participation)

Finger stick testing allows for immediate feedback to each participant. We review health numbers at the time of screening and share next steps for maintaining and improving health numbers.
