• Medical history and pertinent physical exam
• Blood work, as needed, ordered on an individual basis
• Annual breast examination and education regarding monthly self-breast exams
• Annual pelvic examination and pap test (smear)
• STD screening and counseling
• Contraceptive counseling and prescriptions (Prenatal care is not available at the SHC)
• Smoking cessation counseling
