Preventive Healthcare Services

Preventive healthcare services are measures taken to prevent illnesses or health issues before they occur rather than treating them after they develop. This includes regular check-ups, vaccinations, screenings (like blood pressure and cholesterol tests), and lifestyle counseling (such as nutrition and exercise advice). The goal is to identify risk factors early, promote healthy habits, and ensure timely interventions, ultimately improving long-term health outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. By focusing on prevention, individuals can lead healthier lives and avoid more serious health problems in the future.
