At NewMed Immediate Care in Rolling Meadows, we provide thorough annual physical exams tailored to individuals of all ages. Our physicals are designed to monitor health, identify potential health issues early, and ensure that all members of your family maintain optimal health throughout the year.
Importance of Annual Physicals
Annual physicals are a cornerstone of preventive healthcare. These exams are vital for catching potential health problems before they become serious and for maintaining an ongoing record of your health status. Regular check-ups allow your healthcare provider to assess your overall health and make informed recommendations on lifestyle, diet, and management of any chronic conditions.
What to Expect During Your Annual Physical
Health History Review:
Each physical begins with a review of your medical history, including any new health concerns, chronic illnesses, or family history of diseases. This information helps to personalize your care and focus on areas of particular concern.
Vital Signs Check:
We measure your blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature. These vital signs are key indicators of your current health and can point to potential health issues.
Physical Examination:
The physical exam includes a head-to-toe assessment where the provider will check various systems of the body, including the heart, lungs, abdomen, skin, and neurological systems. This examination helps in detecting any abnormalities that might require further attention.
Screening Tests:
Depending on your age, lifestyle, family history, and personal medical history, specific screening tests may be recommended. These could include blood tests, cholesterol levels, diabetes screening, cancer screenings, and bone density assessments.
Update Immunizations:
We’ll review your vaccination history and update any necessary immunizations, based on the latest public health guidelines.
Discussion and Health Planning:
The final part of the physical involves discussing your health goals and any concerns you have. Based on the exam and test results, we provide advice on maintaining or improving your health, including nutrition, exercise, and managing risk factors for disease.
