Screening Information

At Healthy Life Screening, your comfort is very important to us and we want to ensure that you have the most professional and caring screening possible. To properly receive a screen and obtain the best results, a few simple steps should be taken prior to your arrival to the screening event.

As you prepare for your screening, we ask that you not alter your routine if you are taking medications. If you are diabetic, please follow your diabetic care plan.

Each test is unique and your comfort, in large part, depends on the clothing you wear and how appropriate it is to the screening you signed up for. The following are important reminders when showing up for your screenings to ensure good results and your comfort:

• Wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes, a short sleeve shirt or a tee shirt is ideal
• Avoid eating for 4 hours prior to your appointment. If you must eat within 4 hours prior to your appointment, a "light meal" allows for a better, more accurate screen result.
