How do I get my Results?

You’ll be given your results during your appointment.

Our friendly practitioners will provide you with a cardiovascular risk score, which is an estimate of how likely you are to get heart disease or have a stroke in the next 10 years.

The higher the risk score, the more likely you are to develop one of these illnesses, but do not worry – you will also be given supportive and effective lifestyle advice about how to:

  • Improve your diet
  • Increase the amount of exercise you do
  • Lose weight
  • Stop smoking

Your advisor will also refer you to further free Healthy You services you can join to support any lifestyle changes identified for improvement during the NHS health check
