NHS health checks for adults (Brighton and Hove)

Health checks for adults

Adults who are 40 to 74 years old can get an NHS health check every five years.

A health check can spot early signs of stroke, kidney disease, heart disease, type 2 diabetes or dementia.

After your check you’ll get advice about staying healthy and well.

Health checks during pregnancy

You’ll be offered tests and scans when you are pregnant that look for any health problems that could affect you or your baby.

Your GP or midwife can give you more information about these tests and your options.
