Preventive Health
(Initial Health Assessment - First Health Checkup)
You need to make an appointment for your first health checkup
as soon as possible if you are a Care1st member. You will receive
a complete physical during your first health checkup. This checkup
will help you and your doctor know each other better. This is
important since your doctor is your partner in your health. At
your appointment your doctor will ask you to answer a questionnaire
called the "Staying Healthy Assessment". This will help
your doctor get to know you better. It will help your doctor provide
you with complete care.
Preventive Health Guidelines
We want you and your family to stay healthy. Regular checkups,
even when you are not sick, are important to maintain your health.
They also help your doctor identify health problems early on.
Preventive health guidelines show you when you need your regular
checkups. Cick here for preventive health guidelines for Adults
& Children.
