Targeted Lung Health Check (TLHC)

People aged 55 to 74 who smoke, or who have ever smoked, will be invited to have a 10 minute phone call about their smoking history.

After this, we will assess their risk factors for lung conditions and if appropriate offer them a more detailed consultation face to face with a nurse on our mobile consultation unit.

The service is based at:

Plot 5000
Advanced Research Cluster (ARC)
John Smith Drive
Oxford OX4 2BH

Where appropriate, we may also offer a scan, and follow up any concerns identified by the scan.

This programme has been developed as part of the NHS Long Term Plan.

This kind of non-symptomatic screenings means that we can detect any issues quickly, which is an important part of successful treatment.
