This update course had been developed in line with UK Health Security Agency and NHS Health Check Guidelines. However it is important for all clinicians to have undertaken Foundational training and undergo supervised practice in their workplace and only to practise autonomously when they and their employer are satisfied that they are competent to do so.
This update course is designed to ensure healthcare professionals in primary care settings in the UK retain the necessary skills and knowledge to perform an NHS Health Check. The course will focus on using evidence-based practices, adherence to national guidelines, and an overview of every step of the NHS Health Check process, from invitation through to take home information and referrals.
Exploring health promotion, client-centred care and legal issues, participants will improve their knowledge around how to complete physical and written risk assessments. This will include personal data, physiological measurement, family history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes, alcohol and smoking status, activity level, diabetes and CVD risk score and dementia risk reduction messaging. Participants will refresh knowledge and competence in assessing client’s risk based on data collected to develop a plan of care with the client, included any necessary referrals to local services as per local and national guidelines.
Developed in line with UK national standards and guidelines and guidance from the NHS and NICE.
