Which areas can your assessment cover?
Medical & cardiovascular
History, examination, risk factors, and clinically indicated investigations.
Sleep & recovery
Sleep timing and symptoms, travel, stress, medication, and recovery capacity.
Nutrition & metabolism
Review nutritional habits and relevant metabolic findings to set practical priorities for food and daily routines.
Movement & physical capacity
Mobility, strength, endurance, function, and recovery, considered in context.
Cognition & performance
Discuss attention, concentration and changes you have noticed, alongside sleep, stress and medical history.
Stress & resilience
Consider periods of pressure, how you recover and which routines or clinical follow-up may be useful.
Which tests will you have?
Your assessment is planned for you individually. Before you arrive, the team reviews your history, symptoms, previous results, and goals. One-to-one consultations help clarify the questions that matter, and your proposal confirms the assessments and professionals selected for your program.
You can ask why an assessment is recommended, how the result may inform your care and whether it is included in the fee. External investigations and specialist services are identified separately where relevant.
What will the results tell you?
Assessment is useful when the findings help inform a decision. Relevant professionals consider the results alongside your history, symptoms, goals, and existing care.
The plan should distinguish priorities from optional investigations and explain the reason for each recommendation. More tests or more activity do not automatically create a more personal program.
What happens after your stay?
Practical routines
Translate relevant findings into agreed sleep, nutrition, movement, and recovery routines.
Clear responsibilities
Identify referrals, the professionals involved, and who will coordinate the next step.
Review points
Agree on what will be reviewed and how follow-up connects with your existing care.
Explore the two-week format →From your first questions to clear responsibilities
Tell admissions which questions you would like the program to address and what relevant records already exist. The team explains which information is needed for review and how to share it. Avoid ordering additional tests simply to arrive with a larger file.
Before confirming a stay, the proposal should identify the selected consultations and investigations, where they occur and any external services or separate costs. Clarify who brings the findings together and how to contact the relevant professional with a clinical question.
During interpretation, ask what the assessment has clarified, what remains uncertain and which next step has priority. An inconclusive result can still require a plan; a reassuring result in one area is not a conclusion about every health concern. See Medical Team & Care Coordination for the distinction between admissions, coordination and clinical responsibilities.
What a useful written healthspan plan can contain
The outline below is illustrative. It shows a way to organize findings and next steps; it is not a patient record, a clinical result or a promise that everyone receives the same assessments.
| Plan section | What it helps clarify |
|---|---|
| Questions and starting information | Your priorities, relevant history and results already available. |
| Findings in context | What was assessed, the interpretation and the limits of the conclusions. |
| Agreed priorities | What needs attention first and what is optional or unresolved. |
| Practical routines | Relevant sleep, meal, movement and recovery plans that account for home, work and travel. |
| Clinical next steps | Referrals, outstanding results, responsible professionals and review points. |
| Continuity and costs | Authorized information sharing, included follow-up and services requiring a separate agreement. |
For specific assessment questions, read about ApoB and lipoprotein(a), prediabetes assessment and whole-body MRI screening. These guides explain decisions and limitations; they are not a list of tests automatically included at SENSES.
How selected services become your agreed assessment plan
Your assessment is not a shopping list of every test mentioned on this website. Use the written proposal to separate the initial review, individually selected investigations and any externally arranged services.
| Stage | What to make explicit |
|---|---|
| History and priorities | Relevant symptoms, existing results, medicines and the questions you want answered; identify who reviews this information. |
| Individually selected assessments | The clinical question, responsible professional, purpose and limitations of each proposed investigation. |
| External services | Provider, appointment location, travel arrangements, result communication and any additional charge. |
| Interpretation and next steps | Who explains the findings, how referrals are arranged and who contacts you about outstanding results. |
This is a decision framework, not a promise that every listed service is included. Tests discussed in our educational articles remain distinct from the services agreed for your stay. See clinical responsibilities and fees and the proposal process.
