We explain what you need to know about HealthFirst and how it could benefit your business.
What is HealthFirst?
How could HealthFirst help look after the health of your employees?
If there's one thing that helps people stay as healthy as possible, it's a regular health check.
Here at Circle Health Group, we have options available for all adults, whether you're a company looking to offer a little more to your employees and helping your workforce stay healthy or you are an individual interested in your own or your family's health.
As employers we're responsible for our employees, not least in ensuring our environment and working conditions are safe to work in, but also ensuring that our employees' health and safety is cared for too.
So if we can help our employees by offering them affordable and regular health checks, then we know we're going the extra mile.This is good for our company as well as our employees, and with Circle Health Group's HealthFirst service, it's now easier than ever.
But it's not just employees that can benefit from this scheme. HealthFirst is open to individuals as well, so if you're a one-person business, self-employed, retired, or just someone looking for a way to get a full health check, we're ready and waiting for you.

By doing so, HealthFirst can help significantly boost productivity and performance whilst reducing absenteeism.
We care for organisations by assessing, improving and maintaining the health of employees and our services can support the mental and physical wellbeing of your employees to help establish a thriving and flourishing workforce.
The service offers employees health assessments, advice, treatment, and support, to help maintain positive working relationships and high performance in the workplace.
We understand the need for solutions that meet the needs of people with different lifestyles and healthcare concerns and our ultimate aim is to reduce the risk of common preventable illnesses.
What’s more, we understand that health is not just the absence of disease, but much more a complete state of physical, mental, and social wellbeing.
Our Essential Health Assessment shows you where you are right now, quickly and conveniently, from an experienced nurse or health advisor. It’s geared towards the young and young-at-heart, before hectic lifestyles start taking their toll.
As well as your vitals, we’ll conduct tests that assess your overall health and wellbeing, identifying easy changes you can make to your diet and exercise.
We’ve also built in time to look at some things we often put aside for another day, such as:
Length of assessment: Up to one hour with a health advisor or nurse.
