Health assessments provide the opportunity for a GP to undertake an in-depth assessment in an individual’s health in order to ensure that optimal health and independence is maintained. The assessment covers medical, physical, psychological and social aspects of health. The initial appointment which generally takes place in the client’s home takes around two hours and is conducted by a registered nurse. This is then followed up by at least a double appointment with the individuals GP at the clinic.
