Health Check

What is an 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.

Will I get an NHS Health Check from my GP surgery?

Because the NHS Health Check programme is run by local authorities, how you get your check varies, depending on where you live.

The majority of NHS Health Checks are done in GP surgeries and local pharmacies, but in some areas they may also be offered at other suitable and accessible places in your area. For example, to passers-by at mobile units or at leisure centres.

To find out how you can get an NHS Health Check where you live, find out more about the NHS Health Check programme in your area or contact your local authority directly.
