What Is a Mobile Wellness Screening?
A mobile wellness screening is a preventive health assessment performed at your location — home, office, senior living facility, or community site — by a certified mobile healthcare professional. The service mirrors what you'd receive at a clinic or employer health fair, minus the travel, scheduling friction, and waiting room.
Screenings can include blood pressure measurement, blood glucose testing, cholesterol and lipid panels, BMI calculation, pulse oximetry, and specimen collection for any physician-ordered laboratory panels. Comprehensive metabolic panels, complete blood counts, and thyroid screenings are among the most commonly requested.
Who Should Schedule a Wellness Screening
Anyone who hasn't had a routine health screening in the past year should consider scheduling one — regardless of age or perceived health status. Many serious conditions, including hypertension, pre-diabetes, and high cholesterol, produce no noticeable symptoms in their early stages. Routine screening is the only way to catch them before they escalate.
Patients over 50, individuals with a family history of cardiovascular disease or diabetes, adults in high-stress or sedentary occupations, and anyone managing obesity or metabolic syndrome benefit especially from regular preventive screenings. New mothers in the postpartum period also commonly use mobile wellness services for follow-up monitoring.
Employer Wellness Programs: A Smart Investment
For employers, mobile wellness screenings at the workplace represent a measurable return on investment. Employees who receive preventive care and early diagnosis miss fewer workdays due to preventable illness. Health screenings at the worksite also signal a genuine organizational commitment to workforce well-being — a factor that influences recruitment and retention.

From small businesses to large employers, we bring certified healthcare professionals and the necessary equipment directly to your facility. Health fairs, scheduled group screenings, and individual appointment-based visits are all available.
How to Prepare for a Mobile Wellness Screening
If your screening includes a fasting blood panel — glucose, lipids, or a comprehensive metabolic panel — avoid food and caloric beverages for 8–12 hours before your appointment. Plain water and essential medications are generally permitted, but confirm fasting requirements with your ordering provider or our scheduling team.
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing for easy access to your arm and blood pressure cuff placement. Keep a brief list of current medications, supplements, and known health conditions available. The visit typically takes 15–30 minutes, and results are sent to your provider or directly to you based on the service type.
Community Health Fairs and Non-Profit Outreach
Mobile wellness screenings are not only for individuals and employers — they're a cornerstone of community health equity. 1 Stikk Mobile's non-profit programming brings health fairs and wellness screenings to underserved neighborhoods, community centers, churches, and public housing communities where residents may otherwise go years without preventive care.
Partner organizations — nonprofits, faith communities, schools, and municipal agencies — can collaborate with 1 Stikk Mobile to design and host community health events tailored to local needs. Bringing care to the people is not just our business model; it's our mission.
