Health Screenings

The free NHS Health Check bus will be travelling to 9 locations throughout East Sussex from today to bring essential health screening services to local people.

The bus will offer screening to people who wouldn’t normally go to their GP for a check-up and will screen for conditions such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, kidney disease and stroke.

The free NHS Health Checks are available to adults aged between 40 and 74, and are provided by trained nurses who will ask questions about the patient’s lifestyle, record their height, weight, blood pressure, pulse rate and conduct a simple blood test to check cholesterol levels.
