Haringey's Cardio Vascular Problems

[Adrian Essex]

So just after I'd written my blog revealing intimate details about my cardio vascular health Haringey pops up and carries out a 'consultation' on that very subject. This is the main health consultation page , with the actual questionnaire "Getting to the Heart of the Matter" here. (8 questions about heart disease and 7 for monitoring purposes).

The consulation received approval based on this document Scrutiny Review – Men’s  Health: Getting to the heart of the matter which highlights the discrepancy between the East and the West of the borough, with statistics showing life expectancy is 9 years lower in some parts of the East of the Borough than in the West.

Complete the  questionnaire and you come to a page which offers you the "Haringey Health Trainer Service". If you want to improve your health:

Your Health Trainer will:

• help you to set a realistic goal
• help you to develop a personal health plan
• help you to achieve your goal with support and guidance
