Important announcement
PHE Screening has paused its social media accounts while staff support the national response to Covid-19.
Any queries in relation to the provision of screening programmes during the COVID-19 response can be made to the NHSEI Incident Control Team.
The PHE Screening team
Public Health England (PHE) is the expert voice on screening, providing advice and guidance to the NHS. The national population screening programmes identify apparently healthy people who may be at increased risk of a disease or condition, enabling earlier treatment and informed decisions.
