The Metropolitan Borough Council of Sandwell is seeking expressions of interest from suitably experienced and competent Providers of a NHS Health Check Service. The NHS Health Check programme aims to improve the health and wellbeing of adults aged 40 to 74 years through the promotion of early awareness, assessment, and management of the major risk factors for Cardio-Vascular Disease (CVD) - risk factors that are associated with premature death, disability and health inequalities. The objectives include to: • Promote and improve the early identification and management of the individual behavioural and physiological risk factors for vascular disease and the other conditions associated with those risk factors. • Support individuals to effectively manage and reduce behavioural risks and associated conditions through information, behavioural and evidence-based clinical interventions. • Help reduce inequalities in the distribution and burden of behavioural risks, related conditions and multiple morbidities. • Promote and support appropriate operational research and evaluation to optimise programme delivery and impact, nationally and locally.
