Lifesigns Celebrates Medical Professionals as Part of Healthcare Quality Week
“We are grateful to our team of medical professionals who help provide quality care to our patients year-round,” says Sandy Bradford, Director of Business Development for Lifesigns. “We welcome the opportunity to honor them and their dedication to continually improving patient outcomes.”
Lifesigns has been providing prevention-focused physical exams for 25+ years and continually strives to educate patients about their own health as well as the importance of having a primary care relationship.
According to the CDC, over 78% of adults 55 and over have at least one chronic health condition including arthritis, asthma, cancer, cardiovascular disease, COPD, and diabetes. However, less than half of adults have a primary care doctor.
Annual physicals are one of the best methods for understanding physical health and curtailing many health conditions before they become more serious or life-threatening. Receiving annual physicals and greater quality healthcare can result in:
- A greater percentage of citizens participating in regular preventative, primary care and follow up visits
- Better prevention, early detection and management of chronic illness such as diabetes and hypertension
- Decrease in overall expenditure on pharmaceuticals
- Decreased number of catastrophic health events
- Enhanced health and wellness
Lifesigns also offers its mobile clinic, HealthyHere, designed to reduce cost, increase access to care, improve wellness and complete a doctor’s visit in a fraction of the time of a traditional office visit.
For more information about getting an annual physical at Lifesigns or to learn more about the mobile medical clinic, visit Lifesigns and HealthyHere online or call Sandy Bradford at 901-260-9914.
