| WISEWOMAN (Well-integrated Screening and Evaluation for Women Across the Nation), aims to reduce cardiovascular disease by promoting early detection, risk factor screening, risk reduction and access to medical treatment for low-income, uninsured and underinsured women aged 40 to 64. To participate, women must be receiving screening services through the Oregon Breast and Cervical Cancer Program. The program is funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for heart disease and stroke screening services that will include a family medical history, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), cholesterol, and glucose tests. The goal is to determine risk factors for heart disease and stroke and to use behavioral-change strategies to improve diet, increase physical activity, live tobacco-free, and adopt other healthy behaviors. The WISEWOMAN Program will initially be piloted at the ommunity Health Center in Medford and the Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Clinics in Washington and Yamhill counties. | |
