Health Risk Appraisal
The Personal Wellness Profile (PWP) is a comprehensive health and lifestyle assessment based on the most current scientific guidelines for optimal health from leading health research organizations. PWPs provide a computerized health risk appraisal that evaluates individual health status.
PWP recommendations are designed to guide the participant in making safe and effective lifestyle improvements. Important symptoms reported by the participant are noted along with health enhancement recommendations and when appropriate, a referral to their physician. Exercise guidelines and other recommendations are based on published standards of leading health and government agencies.
Features of the Personal Wellness Profile program include:
- All coronary risk factors illustrated in graph form.
- Personalized guidelines that identify areas for lifestyle improvement.
- Use of extensive lipid profile - cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, glucose.
- Nutrition recommendations for three levels of dietary cholesterol restriction.
- Dietary guidelines for caloric restriction.
- Blood pressure measurement.
- Body composition analysis.
The PWP program includes a one-hour group interpretation seminar. Each participant receives a computerized report with specific recommendations for lowering their risk and improving their overall health. Additional information is provided to assist them in understanding their specific results. Our nurses encourage the participant in making positive lifestyle changes.
A Lakeland Care health care consultant will review the Corporate Summary with your company. The Corporate Summary indicates number and percent of people in each health category (numeric and graph format). This report will help you establish a baseline for wellness programming and monitoring health changes for your associates.
Individual confidentiality is maintained through out the entire program.
