The Grenfell Enhanced Health Checks are available each year and include an initial in person appointment to undertake a range of checks and tests that will be provided by a health care professional including:

Physical Health Check

Blood Tests

• A blood test will be requested if it is needed to rule out conditions such as diabetes, and high cholesterol, or do test your thyroid function and renal function

Following the tests an appointment will be arranged with a GP to discuss the results and any other concerns you may have about your health and wellbeing.

Child Enhanced Health Check

For Children, this appointment will include the following with a healthcare professional:

• Respiratory symptom check
