Free walk-in mobile health service aims to put residents on the road to success
By Deborah Bowyer 31st Jan 2023
Did anyone get chance to pop into Cheshire East's walk-in health and well-being service today (Tuesday) in Sandbach?
The bus was in Waitrose car park today and on Friday residents in and around Alsager will get a chance to check-out the service.
It is outside the Cedars Medical Centre in Sandbach Road South from 10 am until 3 pm.
A spokesperson for the service said: "Everyone is at risk of developing heart disease, stroke, diabetes, kidney disease and some forms of dementia.
"The good news is that these conditions can often be prevented – even if you have a history of them in your family."
The free wellbeing check is like an MOT for your body, health, and wellbeing and takes about 20 to 30 minutes.
The check includes:
- blood pressure checks
- heart screening
- advice on:
- alcohol consumption
- diabetes
- diet and healthy eating
- healthy wellbeing
- living with Covid (importance of vaccinations, vaccination clinic availability, Covid-19 LFT kits)
- mental health (including Mentell)
- physical activity, exercise and fitness
- stopping smoking
Full details about the weekly location for the service are available at: https://www.cheshireeast.gov.uk/livewell/health-matters/health-and-wellbeing-service/health-and-wellbeing-service.aspx
