A stroke occurs every 40 seconds and yet up to 80% of strokes can be prevented.
Screenings are fast, painless and affordable. The Stroke Risk, Vascular & Heart Rhythm Package screens for stroke and cardiovascular disease risk with the goal of generating peace of mind early detection. Nearly 800,000 strokes will occur this year, taking a life approximately every four minutes.
A bone density screening to assess osteoporosis risk is also offered and is appropriate for both men and women. Many events also offer blood tests, including cholesterol, glucose and c-reactive protein screenings, as well as take-home colon cancer early detection tests.
For more information regarding the screenings or to schedule an appointment, call 1-844-591-7160 or text the word circle to 216-279-1607 or visit https://llsa.social/hsca. Pre-registration is required.
