Be.Healthy at Home assessments
Check your health where it suits you
You don’t have to visit one of our health centres to get a look at your current health. With our remote health assessments, you can complete a lot of the same tests as our in-centre options from the comfort of your own home.
We’ll send you everything you need to carry out the tests, including a blood sample collection kit you’ll need to send back to us. Once we’ve analysed the data, one of our health advisers or GPs will take you through what everything means and chat through any concerns you might have.

What's included in your assessment?
Before your assessment
We’ll send you two questionnaires before your appointment. The first lets us know a little more about you and your health. The second will come 48 hours before your call, and will give us an idea of how your mental health is.
We’ll also send you a home testing kit so you can take a blood sample. We need you to do this within 48 hours of getting it, so we have enough time to process the results.
What we check on the day
Our health adviser will take you through these health checks. For more information, we have detailed explanations of why we use them.
Height, weight and waist measurements
We’ll also check your BMI and body fat percentage to see if you’re under or overweight.
Basal metabolic rate
This tells us how your body breaks down the food you eat.
Estimated energy requirements
The average dietary intake to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Mental health review
We’ll discuss your mental wellbeing with you and see how you’re dealing with any stresses or anxieties.
Sleep review
We’ll ask you how you’ve been sleeping recently and look into any issues that may be causing poor resting patterns.
Mobility and flexibility

If you need advice, Anytime HealthLine puts you through to nurses ready to help. And when we say anytime, we mean it. They’re around for support 24 hours a day.
