Health Screening
Event description
Screening tests are health checks that aim to pick up health problems early in people who don't have symptoms of disease.
There are 4 tests that the Heart Foundation suggest we should all do:
- Heart Health - check your blood pressure and blood glucose
- Diabetes - check your blood sugars
- Hearing
- Eyesight
We are offering free checks of your health at the Ouyen Service Centre on 25th June from 10am till 2pm.
