Annual health checks
Requesting a 14+ Annual Health Check
Your GP will offer you an annual health check. If your GP hasn't offered you a health check, you can ask them to provide one.
Ask your GP if you need any reasonable adjustments, such as:
- using pictures, large print or simpler words to say what's happening
- booking longer appointments
- putting an appointment at the beginning or end of the day, if you find it hard to be in a busy waiting room
If you have difficulty visiting your GP, the Primary Care Health Hub can meet you in a place of your choosing to do your annual health check.
You can contact the Primary Care Health Hub on 0191 451 6649 or SouthTynesidePCPHS@cntw.nhs.uk
