Our Mission: Employees that lead healthier lifestyles and become more knowledgeable health care consumers, have a beneficial impact on your bottom line.   South Central Health Screenings helps to identify your employees at risk for cardiovascular diseases such as stroke, poor circulation, and heart attack.   We can help your company save money while increasing employee productivity, reduce sick days, and improving morale!!   We can create incentives to get your employees to take more responsibility for their health and wellness. Studies show a savings of $3 to $8 for every dollar invested into wellness and prevention programs.(1)

How we do it:

South Central Health Screenings provides diagnostic ultrasound testing which is non-invasive and can detect the early stages of significant diseases such as stroke, abdominal aortic aneurysm, and peripheral arterial disease. Our EKG testing can detect life threatening heart arrhythmias which is another significant cause of stroke.   Our pulmonary function screen can detect the early stages of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. We can team with your local hospitals to provide finger stick blood testing which can detect increased levels of cholesterol and blood sugar.  Our free educational seminars will help your employees understand their health risks and understand the need for risk modification at an early stage to help prevent these serious and life threatening diseases.
