The one to one screening with our health screening nurse starts with a general pre-screening conversation about the worker's health and lifestyle. The nurse then carries out 5 basic tests:
BLOOD PRESSURE TEST
FULL CHOLESTEROL SCREEN (finger-prick, no fasting required)
DIABETES HBA1C TEST (finger-prick, no fasting required)
HEIGHT, WEIGHT, & BODY MASS INDEX.
LUNG FUNCTION CHECK
Following the tests the nurse will have a chat with the worker about their results and provide lifestyle advice if necessary. They may also make a recommendation to attend their GP. Workers who do not have a GP can avail of a our GP access agreement with Centric Health.
