Screening Procedures

Screening procedures are processes used to identify individuals who may have a particular condition or meet certain criteria, often before symptoms appear. These tests or assessments help catch issues early, guiding further evaluation or intervention if needed. Common examples include health screenings like blood pressure checks or cancer screenings, as well as job screenings for specific skills. They are designed to efficiently identify potential risks or needs, reducing the likelihood of more serious problems developing later. Proper screening ensures timely action and resource allocation, ultimately supporting better health outcomes and decision-making.
