Counseling & Screening Services

 

The St. Croix Health Care team provides services, including regular health check-ups and screenings to over 50 patients daily. Such screenings will help prevent/reduce diseases and the overall death rate in the region. They will also lower the number of employee absences due to injuries or illness. Following the screenings, residents are given a six-month supply of medication, if needed. A six-month follow-up visit is arranged to evaluate their progress as a result of taking the medication. Screenings will include, but not limited to:
