First Church: Life Line Screening

You Can Avoid A Stroke!



Most people can’t identify a single risk factor or a warning sign of stroke, yet over 750,000 Americans will be affected by a stroke this year alone!


Life Line Screening will be at First United Methodist Church of Roseville performing a day of preventive health screenings on 2/15/2013.

Screenings are fast, painless and offered at low cost. They involve the use of ultrasound technology and scan for potential health problems related to: blocked arteries which can lead to a stroke, aortic aneurysms which can lead to a rupture, and plaque buildup in the arteries in the legs which is a strong predictor of heart disease. Also offered for men and women is a bone density screening to assess their risk for osteoporosis.


These non-invasive, inexpensive and painless ultrasound tests help people identify their risk for stroke, vascular diseases or osteoporosis early enough for their physician to begin preventive procedures.
