National Prevention Program Follow these key steps to ensure a lifetime of
opportunities. 1. Visit your hemophilia treatment center (HTC) annually for a comprehensive check-up. HTCs offer comprehensive one-stop
services for testing and care. People who use the HTC live longer, healthier lives. 2. Get vaccinated -- Hepatitis A and B are preventable. Get vaccinations and information at your HTC. 3. Treat bleeds early and adequately. Be prepared. Recognize a bleed and seek treatment quickly. 4. Exercise and maintain a healthy weight to protect your joints. Exercise strengthens your muscles, and strong muscles protect your joints. 5. Get tested regularly for blood-borne infections. Know your test results. It matters to you and to your family.
