It’s time to look after yourself.... 

Why is a 45-49 year Health Assessment important? 

At Growlife Medical, we know that this stage in life is very busy, with our time stretched between caring for children or older family members and work responsibilities. It is very easy to put aside your health, especially when you have so many competing interests or haven’t been aware of any health problems in your past. By conducting a health check now, we may be able to catch things early that might otherwise go unnoticed. 


We also know that as time passes, habits are less likely to change. With chronic disease often appearing in your 50’s, checking progress, and setting the right habits now, will mean you can enjoy the rewards of hard work when you retire in good health.


Chronic diseases are those which may be present for at least 6 months, including asthma, cancer, cardiovascular illness , diabetes mellitus , a mental health condition, arthritis or a musculoskeletal condition. Studies show that risk factors for some of these chronic diseases often present when a person is in the 45-49 years age group. Often small changes that can be made within this time frame, may have a great impact later in life, if these chronic diseases are able to be delayed or even prevented. Being on top of your health now with a simple check can have a big impact on your future health!

What is a 45-49 year Health Assessment?

This is a health assessment with the GP for patients within the age group 45-49 years who may be at risk of developing chronic disease. Patients are identified based on a specific risk factor, which may include high blood pressure, cholesterol or glucose levels, lifestyle factors such as smoking or alcohol consumption, excess weight, lack of exercise or family history of a chronic disease.  

Your GP will review your past medical history, conduct physical examinations, refer for investigations and provide an overall assessment. Some of this information may be collected by other members of the health care team, such as the practice nurse. This team based approach also means you can gain several perspectives on how your health is tracking. From this assessment, the GP may initiate referrals or interventions and provide you with advice or information, including strategies to make lifestyle changes to areas such as nutrition or an exercise program.  

An individual is eligible for this check once throughout this age range.
