Health and services

Health checks, sexual health and services from the municipality.

Prevention

Health check – we listen to what you are wondering about

Many people ask for a “full check”. That doesn't really exist – but we are happy to do a thorough assessment. If you are worried about something or have a symptom, we listen, examine you and take the tests that make sense for you. Book on Helsenorge and write what you are wondering about.

What you are worried about

A symptom, a lump, a mole or illness in the family? Tell us – we take it seriously and set aside enough time.

The major diseases

We pay special attention to what matters most for your long-term health: heart and vascular disease, stroke, cancer and dementia. Blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar matter from around 40 – earlier if they run in the family.

Lifestyle

Sleep, food, activity, smoking, snus and alcohol. If you want to change something, we will help – and the municipality's Healthy Life Centre (Frisklivssentralen) can follow you up.

National screening programmes – you get a letter

    Cervical screening
