FREE heart screenings – change to age criteria

VSF will now screen young people aged 16 to 35

Following our annual review of the FREE heart screening service VSF provide, and after consultation with our consultants and clinical team, we feel we are unable to screen anyone below the age of 16.

This is due to our focus and concentration on young adults which is aged 16 and over, rather than paediatric which is under 16.

We have  therefore increased our age criteria to young people aged 16 to 35.  This change is effective immediately.
