If you’re between 40 and 74 and live in the UK, you should have a health check which we can do at our pharmacy for a nominal charge.

The health check should take around 30 minutes. A healthcare professional, will ask you a series of simple questions about your lifestyle and family history. The check is nothing to worry about and you won’t be asked any embarrassing questions or need to remove clothing.

You can also expect:

• A blood pressure test
• Your weight and height measured
• A finger prick blood test for your blood sugar levels
• AV check-this is a check of your heart using a mobile EEG monitor

 The Health Check focuses on:

• Heart disease
• Diabetes
• Strokes
• Kidney disease

 If you are over 65, you will also be told the signs of dementia to look out for.

After your blood pressure test, sugar level test and BMI results, the  Pharmacist will be happy to offer lifestyle advice or suggest you visit your GP, if needed. They might offer ideas on how to:

• Improve your diet
• Increase your levels or frequency of physical exercise

We will listen to you and any problems you are having with your medicines, provide advice and support and if necessary contact your Doctor to discuss any issues that arise from our conversation.
