NHS Health Check

The NHS Health Check is a health check-up for adults in England aged 40 to 74. It’s designed to spot early signs of stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, type 2 diabetes or dementia. As we get older, we have a higher risk of developing one of these conditions. An NHS Health Check helps find ways to lower this risk.

NHS Health Checks were paused during COVID but we are now restarting these in June 2021, in line with guidance for primary care settings.

Invitations to attend your NHS Health check will be sent to patients via the SMS booking link or by letter.

More information on these checks can be found here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/nhs-health-check/

UPDATES

Measles is extremely infectious and can be serious. If you have symptoms of measles, please stay at home and phone your GP or NHS 111 for advice. STAY AWAY from GP surgeries and A&E departments – you could spread the illness to others.

WE ARE IMPROVING OUR APPOINTMENT SYSTEM

In response to patient feedback relating to appointment availability and difficulties with contacting us on the phone, we have introduced a new Clinical Patient Triage system .

This means every medical enquiry is triaged by one of our GPs first.

Patient Triage is a set of simple questions completed by the patient or receptionist to help us find the right appointment, support or advice for you at the right time. You can get in touch with us online at www.lhmp.co.uk or via the NHS App.

Please contact us by phone for urgent concerns
