More than 70 percent of all illness is related to lifestyle choices and can be prevented if health risks are identified early. Saint Mary’s offers numerous programs that focus on wellness, prevention and education throughout all stages of life.
WellCheck
At Saint Mary’s Community WellCheck, we offer a wide variety of affordable health screenings that will help you “know your numbers” to risk factors associated with cancer.
WellCheck Health screenings include:
-
Complete Blood Count - $15
This laboratory test provides information about the blood, such as red and white blood cell counts, and blood-forming tissues (especially bone marrow). Abnormal results may indicate conditions such as anemia, leukemia and infections, as well as problems with blood clotting.
-
Colorectal Cancer Home Screening Kits - $20
Saint Mary's take-home kits are used to identify blood in the stool, which may be a warning sign of many colorectal diseases. This simple, sanitary test requires no stool handling and is recommended for persons 40 years of age and over, and those who have a personal or family history of lower intestinal disorders, colorectal cancer or other cancers.
Because we value your time, Saint Mary’s offers the convenience of a scheduled WellCheck appointment by calling Saint Mary’s Telehealth at (775) 770-7100, or you can make an appointment online.
