A simple but important way to look after your health is to accept your invitation to screening appointments that are offered through different stages of life.
- Screening aims to detect early stages of disease or prevent disease occuring
- Screening is a process of identifying apparently healthy people who may be at an increased risk of a disease or condition
- They can then be offered information, further tests and appropriate treatment to reduce their risk and/or any complications arising from the disease or condition
- Listed below are the screening programmes that are available in Wales to support detection and treatment. You can also visit Hywel Dda University Health Board NHS screening programme and Public Health Wales for more information.
