The Practice provide for al patients in the age group of 40 to 74 years of age a free NHS Health Check.
Everyone is at risk of developing heart disease, stroke, diabetes or kidney disease. Good news is that these conditions can often be prevented, even if you have a family history.
Our Health Checks are 30 minutes in length, where our HCA will ask a few simple questions, we will record your height, weight, age, sex and ethnicity. We will also record your Blood Pressure and check your cholesterol levels. We will advise you of the outcome of your check, and provide you with advice on healthy lifestyles.
You can help the process by completing the relevant Health Check Questionnaire, which you should bring with you, after you have made your appointment.
PLEASE SEE THE PATIENT FORMS SECTION FOR THE NHS HEALTH CHECK QUESTIONNAIRE
