At TotalWellness we provide a different kind of screening experience that focuses on positive messaging and the belief that everyone is healthy. This outside-the box thinking means it’s extra important that we’re all on the same page when providing health screening services.
In most cases, a biometric screening package includes registration, height, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, blood pressure, finger-stick blood test (total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, TC/HDL ratio, triglycerides, and glucose) and a 3-5 minute health education session. Your event worksheet will outline the exact services being offered at your event. The event worksheet will also outline if the services are being delivered in a station to station or a pod model.
TotalWellness generally recommends that station to station events are setup so participants complete services in the following order: a) registration, b) height, weight, BMI, waist circumference, c) blood pressure, d) finger-stick blood test, e) health education. We recommend this setup because it allows the consent form to stay with the participant/the participant’s blood sample; therefore, reducing the chances of values getting missed. However, depending on the room size and quantity of contractors provided the coordinator may adjust the station to station flow.
Under the TotalWellness pod model all services are provided at the same station by one contractor, with the exception of registration. When administering screenings in a pod format it is important to do the finger-stick blood test first. This allows you to provide other services while the machine is processing the cholesterol and glucose readings. You can educate on the services and participant’s results as you perform the services or after all services have been completed.
