Jacqueline's Story

Taking control of your heart health through early detection and prevention

Jacqueline, a school bus monitor from Clarkston, GA, explains what motivated her to attend Care Access’s free heart and kidney health screening. Having lost both her father and husband to congestive heart failure, she understands firsthand the importance of early detection and prevention.

“Health screenings can tell you if you’re at risk for a stroke or heart attack, check your cholesterol, and evaluate your kidney health,” Jacqueline explains. For her, it’s not just about her own health—it’s about helping others become aware of their risks and take action to prevent serious health issues.

Jacqueline encourages more people to participate in these important health screenings, as they play a key role in early detection and prevention, particularly for those with a family history of heart disease.
