Is Healthy Start for you?
- Healthy Start is for all Pregnant Women, new Mothers and babies (up until 3 years old). These services are in place to help ensure that all St. Lucie County Babies are given the chance for a Healthy Start in Life.
Why should I complete the Screen?
- Florida considers these services to be so valuable that by LAW every pregnant woman in this state, regardless of income level, has the right to complete a Healthy Start Screen. If you aren’t offered one, ASK FOR IT!
- The Healthy Start Prenatal and Infant Screens are one page questionnaires. The questions are meant to identify if you have any risk factors that could negatively impact your pregnancy and/or newborn. You and your infant can benefit from your participation with Healthy Start
