Keep Well Health Assessments

Keep Well Health Assessments

Note that the information detailed below is for Clackmannanshire Council staff only.

Our Healthy Working Lives group, in collaboration with NHS Forth Valley Keep Well Service, is offering free Keep Well health assessments to all staff.

The Keep Well health assessments seek to identify people at particular risk of preventable serious ill-health, including those with undetected chronic diseases, and offer appropriate interventions and services.

The assessments are one to one, and cover a wide range of health issues, including:

  • Cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure checks
  • Weight, weight loss and healthy eating
  • Diabetes risk
  • Healthy heart
  • Mental wellbeing
  • Men and Women's health
  • Healthy living
  • Smoking cessation
  • Coping with stress

The Keep Well Service will, where necessary, provide monitoring and follow up, and could also request assistance from other services if required.

Each assessment will take about an hour - 20 mins information gathering over the phone, and 40 mins in-person health assessment at the Keep Well Clinic at Clackmannanshire Healthcare Centre, Sauchie.

After each assessment, Keep Well will explain the results to the member of staff and work with them to improve or maintain their health.

Staff will also have the opportunity to talk to the assessor about anything else that may be worrying them about their health.

The Council's Senior Leadership Group (SLG) has given their backing to this programme, and staff members interested in the health assessments are only required to agree paid time off with their line manager, in advance, in order to participate.
