Women’s Preventive Services Initiative (WPSI): Recommendations for Adult Well-Woman Health Care

A federally supported program led by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), the WPSI’s mission is to improve adult women’s health across the lifespan. Their Well-Woman Chart (in English and Spanish) lists recommendations for women’s health care, including screening, evaluation of health risks and needs, counseling, and immunizations. The recommended preventive services have been developed by the WPSI, U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), and Bright Futures based on age, health status, and risk factors. Go online to find these health recommendations and to sign up for their newsletter.
