Staff Health MOT

Health MOT’s – we have arranged a number of monthly Health MOT days which will be facilitated by Leicestershire County Council. These are for any staff member with an interest in their own health and wellbeing.

Notice content:
The Health MOTs comprise a number of checks, looking at:

• Cholesterol – including total cholesterol, good cholesterol, and ratio of total to good cholesterol
• HbA1c – your blood glucose (sugar) levels for the last three months. This gives individuals a better understanding of their average blood sugar levels compared to a simple glucose test.
• Height, Weight and BMI (BMI will be calculated using the NHS website)
• Blood Pressure

Once the above checks are completed, individuals will then have an opportunity to discuss their results with one of the team, as well as discuss anything not already covered. This may include, but not limited to conversations covering:

• Stopping smoking
• Reducing their alcohol intake
• Eating a more balanced diet
• Getting support with their mental health

These will start in May and continue until September, if you are interested please contact occupationalhealth@mailbox.lboro.ac.uk
