PRICELINE Pharmacies are offering free health checks in their Canberra stores.
The health checks cover blood glucose, blood pressure and cholesterol level testing, a BMI evaluation as well as offering personal advice about any other health issues of concern.
To take advantage of the checks you will need to book online.
The chain has released survey data to the effect that over half (53%) of people in ACT don’t know their blood pressure and more than two thirds (71%) don’t know their cholesterol.
