Guidelines for Completing Your
Health and Lifestyle Assessment

Why complete a Health and Lifestyle Assessment?

The reports generated by your answers to this Assessment helps Dr. Powers to accurately and efficiently determine the most appropriate and effective nutrients for each and every individual who engages it. Given the importance of appropriate nutritional support to health and healing and to individual function and performance, your customized nutrient program fulfills a critical role in maximizing your health potential.

This innovative Assessment tool also begins to identify those lifestyle habits that may be sabotaging your body's ability to heal, repair, and function to its genetic ability.

Equipped with the optimal nutrients your body needs, along with the "healthy habit" guidelines designed especially for you, and you are well under way toward looking, feeling, and performing better than you have in years!

Now let's get started!

The following instructions will help guide you through the steps in completing your personal Health and Lifestyle Assessment. Allow about an hour to complete both the Context of Care survey and the Main Assessment. (Future updates can be done in far less time.) If more convenient, you can sign back in later and complete your assessment at that time. If you have any questions or need some help, just call  us at (772) 283-4046 - we would be glad to assist you.

Before you begin, scroll down to the bottom of this page, and click either the 'Save Page' link, or the 'Print Page' link. (This way, you'll have these instructions in front of you while you complete your Health and Lifestyle Assessment.)

• Log onto www.healthcoach.com and enter in the ‘Patient’ side of the site. (Feel free to browse this first page and the associated links for further insight.) Then go to the ‘New Patient’ box, in the center of the page.
  
  
• Enter Dr. Powers’ Health Code: health2071 (there is NO space between “health” and “2071”) in the box, and click ‘Enter.’

• Note: If a screen pops up saying: "There is a problem with the website's security certificate", please click the link that says, "Continue to this website (not recommended)", and don't worry, as it is safe to do so, and your computer will NOT be at risk.
  
  
• Click the ‘Complete Health and Lifestyle Assessment’ button. This link will take you to the ‘Program Overview’ page, where you will find important overviews of each of the 6 Sections of our assessment process, along with a link to our Health Bulletins. If you have not carefully reviewed these by the time you reach these links, we strongly encourage that you use the link provided to access them and print each for review at your earliest convenience. When ready to proceed, click on the ‘GO’ button to the right of ‘Begin Your Health Assessment’.

• You are now on the Basic Info page, where you are required to enter your first and last name, accurate email address, birth date, height, and weight. If you do not have an email address, please enter the email address of someone who can receive important email communications from us and get them to you in timely fashion. If you have no such option (and only if) then enter our email address, hidrpowers@gmail.com. Upon completion of these fields click on “Male” or “Female” and this brings you to the assessment. Please read the opening paragraph before proceeding.

• Note: All information you enter in our site is highly secure, is held in strict confidentiality, and will be archived according to HIPAA guidelines. You WILL NOT receive any spam or unsolicited email as a result.

• You are now ready to start answering questions. Begin with the ‘Context of Care’ portion of the process, and proceed to answer each of the questions on this page. (Most find that they have never been asked many of these questions and find their thoughtful reflection on them to be a valuable endeavor in and of itself!)

• The 4^th question in the ‘Context of Care’ section asks about the results of any specialized lab and medical tests you may have. Instead of typing in your values/results, you may bring in copies of your test results to your next office visit.

• At the bottom of each page, simply click on the ‘Continue’ button to proceed to the next page.
• Next is the ‘Your Health Assessment’ section, beginning with Dietary Factors. Continue to answer the questions the best you can, and keep clicking the ‘Continue’ button at the bottom of each page.

The last 2 sections, ‘Medical Condition Search’ and the ‘Drug Search’, warrant some special attention. Both of these assist you in identifying each medical condition that relates to you, and/or any medication that you are using. Both of these sections are highly important to complete accurately. Please read the accompanying tips to ensure you understand how to use them properly and efficiently.

Medical Condition Search:

1^st: Find a “medical condition” you have
2^nd: Click the box in front of the appropriate name (medical condition)
3^rd: Scroll down to the bottom of that page and click the “select” button

Continue this way until you have entered the names of all of your medical conditions.

When all of your medical conditions have been entered, click ‘Continue’ button at bottom of page.

Drug Search:

1^st: Find the name of a “drug” you are taking

2^nd: Click the box in front of the appropriate name of the drug

3^rd: Scroll down to the bottom of that page and click the “select” button

Continue this way until you have entered the names of all of the drugs you are taking.

When all of the drugs you are taking have been entered, click ‘Continue’ button at bottom of page.

To ensure that the assessment takes any and all medications and medical conditions into account and reports on how to protect you against any associated drug-nutrient and/or condition-nutrient interactions, all must be entered into your assessment online. If you were unable to find or successfully enter a medication you are currently taking, be sure to make a note of it when you are given an opportunity to later on in the assessment process.

• Once you have completed all of the questions in both the ‘Context of Care’ and the ‘Your Health Assessment’, you will be asked to ‘Register’ and complete your registration and e-file set up process. Carefully and accurately enter all information requested. After you have written down your username and password, click on ‘Continue’.
  
• If you have any questions, please call (772) 283-4046 and ask for Christa, and she will be glad to assist you.
