Health checks
Tämän sivun sisältö
We do health checks for certain client groups only, like for informal carers and the unemployed. We do not do extensive health checks of healthy adults. However, you can get a health check if you are at risk of developing a chronic disease. It is voluntary and free of charge to have a health check.
When we do a health check, we are looking for risk factors related to diseases. When you go for a health check you will get instructions on how you can promote your health and prevent disease. During the health check we can:
- make laboratory tests
- make other measurements
- update your vaccine data
- discuss your lifestyle
- guide you on how to make choices that are good for your health.
We guide you to further research or wellbeing groups, if necessary.
You can also have a digital health check in Omaolo.
The digital health check estimates your lifestyle and mental well-being. The health check tells you how your lifestyle affects your life expectancy (about for how long you will live) and your risk of getting ill.

Health check for family carers
In a health check for family carers, we will assess the family carer’s well-being and aim to increase it. The check will also help us to prevent diseases. We recommend the check for family carers, but it is not compulsory. It would be good if the check would be done every two years.
