SUMMARY:The NHS Health Check programme – emerging findings from a realist review
UID:www.birmingham.ac.uk/189658
DESCRIPTION:The NHS Health Check programme – emerging findings from a realist review\n
 The NHS Health Check in England offers adults aged 40 – 74 an assessment of risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Those assessed ‘at risk’ should be offered prescriptions, advice or referrals to other services to support them to make lifestyle changes. We know there is significant (and unexplained) variation in what people are offered after their check, and our realist review project aims to improve our understanding of what affects delivery of this part of the programme.\n
