Health Trainers
North East Lincolnshire Health Trainers
Health trainers are able to offer people a health 'stock take', to help them assess how their way of life might be impacting on their health and the sorts of changes that might be beneficial to them. For many people this sort of support will be all they want.
But people are not all the same and some may need more specialised help. Health trainers will be able to help people access other support, both from their local community and from specialised services such as the NHS Stop Smoking Services or sexual health services, or advice and support on diet and exercise.
