ABCD Drop In Clinics

Our free ABCD clinics are designed to give you a simple, accessible check of your cardiovascular health.

Open to residents of the bailiwick aged 25–70 who are not currently receiving treatment for atrial fibrillation, high blood pressure, high cholesterol or diabetes, these clinics focus on early detection and prevention.

In a relaxed, community setting, we assess your heart rhythm, blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes risk, helping you understand your health and take positive steps where needed.

You’ll find our upcoming clinic dates and times below, making it easy to drop in and take a proactive step for your heart health.

Dr Nicola Brink, Director of Public Health

"High blood pressure and high blood lipids occur frequently, and many people are unaware that they have these conditions. The early detection and treatment of these conditions can reduce the risk of heart disease, strokes and dementia. This is part of our programme to help islanders live longer and healthier lives. It is a great opportunity to reach more people in the community, especially those who might not realise they are at risk. Early detection can make a big difference to someone's health and quality of life."

Caroline Ogier, Manager of Guernsey Chest and Heart Centre

"We are pleased to be working in partnership with Public Health to help islanders take control of their health. These simple checks could prevent serious illness down the line. This service, in addition to the ongoing five-yearly screening programme, will run from the Guernsey Chest and Heart Centre at the PEH. Certain community-based settings such as community centres will also offer these tests. We will be looking to extend this programme to Alderney residents, if the pilot is successful."
