What happens at a 715 Health Check
At your check
You have a yarn with a doctor. A nurse or Aboriginal Health Worker may help too. Depending on your age and health, this can include:
- height, weight and blood pressure
- blood sugar and immunisations
- talking about your family's health
- other tests if you need them, like blood, urine, eyes or hearing
Ask anything about your body or your mind. Nothing happens without your OK, and your business stays private.
After your check
- You and your doctor make a plan for your health. You can take a copy home.
- If you need more care, your doctor can refer you to people like a dietitian, physio or podiatrist. Many are right here at Carbal.
- With a referral, Medicare can help pay for up to 10 of these visits each calendar year. Some visits may still cost money, so ask us first.
You don't have to be sick to come in.
Feeling deadly? Come in anyway.
