We invite patients between 40 and 74 (who are not on any other long term condition register) to attend for an appointment with the Healthcare practitioner to check blood pressure, weight and for advice about diet, smoking and whatever may be of concern.
Basic bloods will also be taken to calculate a risk score.
Patients with a risk score of over 20% will then be added to a recall system to be invited in annually (we have a limit of 5% of patients in this group that we can invite per quarter).
