Health assessment and recommendations

Prior assessment

• Health History: The nurse will take the time to discuss your health history with you, including medical history, allergies, previous surgeries and anything else relevant to your current health.

• Medication: We will review your current medication list, including prescription, over-the-counter, and supplements, to better understand their impact on your health.

• Taking Vital Signs: A complete set of vital signs will be taken, including blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature.

• Blood sugar: We will also measure your blood sugar to assess your blood sugar control and detect any abnormalities related to diabetes.

• Weight Gain and BMI Measurement: Your weight and height will be measured to calculate your body mass index (BMI), an indicator of your body composition and overall health.

• Heart Disease Risk Assessment: A heart disease risk assessment will be carried out taking into account factors such as age, gender, family history, lifestyle and test results.

• Education: Based on the results of the assessment, we will provide you with advice and information on managing your health, including lifestyle changes, nutrition, exercise and medication.

• Referral to Other Professionals: If necessary, we will refer you to other healthcare professionals for further evaluation or treatment.
