Drop-in Fibroscans
Free, four-minute health checks are on offer in Scunthorpe next week to help tackle the growing problem of liver disease.
NHS Humber Health Partnership’s community liver team will be conducting drop-in liver health checks at the town’s Ironstone Centre from 9am to 6pm on Friday 31 January.
If caught early enough, liver damage can be reversed, but all too often, people only become aware they have liver problems when they are admitted to hospital in an emergency.

Lung Health Checks
NHS Targeted Lung Health Checks (TLHC) are being offered in Scunthorpe from October. The TLHC programme aims to help diagnose lung cancer and other respiratory diseases at an earlier stage, when treatment may be simpler and more successful. Detecting more cancers early is a key element within the NHS Long Term Plan, with an ambition that 55,000 more people each year will survive their cancer for at least five years by 2028. The Lung Health Check service launched in Humber and North Yorkshire in January 2020 and has since welcomed over 20,000 participants. Lung health checks have helped to identify cancer and a number of respiratory diseases at an early stage and provided opportunities for earlier treatment that has saved lives.
Eligible participants will receive a letter from their GP inviting them to take part in a telephone assessment with a specialist respiratory nurse. Telephone assessments will take place from October. Those with a high-risk score will be invited to attend a low dose CT scan within two weeks of their initial appointment, which will take place on board a mobile unit based at Brumby Hall, Centenary Way, Scunthorpe.

Important information for patients currently on hospital waiting lists
Important information for patients currently on hospital waiting lists
The NHS has been working hard to address the backlogs built up during the COVID pandemic. As part of these plans, the NHS will be proactively contacting patients who have been waiting a long time for NHS funded treatment to remind them of their right to request to move to an alternative hospital where they may be seen quicker.
From Tuesday 31st October new digital portal called the Patient Initiated Digital Mutual Aid System (PIDMAS) will be introduced. Patients who have been waiting 40 weeks or more can use this portal to request an alternative choice of hospital.
Any patient who is eligible will receive either a SMS text message or a letter from their current hospital explaining how to request to choose a different hospital.
Please do not contact the practice regarding this process as we have no information regarding individual patients.
The hospital will contact you if you are eligible. Please do not contact them either.
Further information about alternative choice is available on hospital websites.
