We were thrilled to share the launch of our new Self Health Kiosk at the Luton Town Centre Practice, which marked our HUC Wellbeing Day in August. The kiosk is now live in the surgery reception and available for all registered patients to use during practice hours. It allows patients to input their details and select which NHS health survey or check they’d like to complete, offering instant measurements for weight, height, blood pressure, and pulse oximetry. It’s also accessible in five languages in addition to English: Polish, Romanian, Urdu, Arabic, and Punjabi.

The go-live was combined with a successful HUC Wellbeing Day, where the wellbeing team engaged in conversations with patients about their health, signposted them to the kiosk, promoted local services and even hosted a colourful fruit and veg stand for our youngest visitors! The surgery will be reviewing the impact of the kiosk and we can’t wait to see how this easy-to-use service boosts health check uptake and supports the community’s wellbeing.
