After Christmas, your employees will be more likely to be prioritising their health. You can help them achieve their goals and improve wellbeing and productivity by booking Norfolk Health Checks to visit your workplace in January 2023! The NHS Health Check is a free check-up of overall health for people aged 40-74 and takes 20-30 minutes to complete. Specially trained Health Check Practitioners will do some basic tests and complete a questionnaire with participants, before giving tailored advice and signposting to help them reduce their risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke and kidney disease. The service is fully funded by Norfolk County Council, meaning that we can deliver health checks to your employees, at their place of work, free of charge. We will also provide any employees that are not eligible for a health check with access to a wide range of resources to help understand and improve their health. Interested in health checks at your workplace? Visit the new Employer Page on our website, give us a call on 0808 175 0413 to find out more “I work for DWP and as a decision maker I can say that the service that you delivered was exemplary. A comment has been made that it was lovely – that it didn’t feel like a tick box exercise but an empathetic and informative experience that they would recommend to others. The practitioners were both very knowledgeable and friendly, so they easily put you at ease. As a site wishing to promote personal wellbeing, the sessions have been very helpful in helping others to think of their own help first.” – Heidi Mann, Department for Work and Pensions “Overall it was a hugely positive experience and I know that many (staff) have already started to make small changes to their lifestyles to improve their health.” – Simon Hobbs – Managing Director of Electrical Testing Ltd
