A testing day,
at your address.
Onsite blood testing for workforces in London and Essex. Individual results in the room; anonymised insight for you.
What a day looks like
- Before. We agree the panel, the date and the room, and send you a one-page note your people can read first — what is measured, what it is not, and that their result is theirs.
- On the day. A quiet room, a table, two chairs. Each person is in for about ten minutes: a finger prick or a small venous sample, the analyser runs it while they sit there, and someone talks them through the printed result.
- Review. Every panel is read by a GMC-registered clinician. Anything outside the reference range for that test carries their note, and anything that should go to a GP is said plainly to the person.
- After. The individual keeps the paper and, if they want, the record in their own Elixir account. You get an anonymised site summary — attendance, and marker-level distribution only where the numbers are large enough to hide a person.
What we measure
Panels are built from the markers the analyser runs in one visit — four, eight or twelve, chosen for the site rather than a catalogue. Never a whole-body list, because a longer list is not a better one.
Most of these need only a finger prick. B12, testosterone and TSH need a small venous sample, spun on site. Cortisol is morning-only; the women's cycle markers are timed to the cycle.
Where it fits
Offices and trading floors where nobody will take a morning off to visit a clinic. Warehouses, logistics and manufacturing sites running nights, where regulation 7 already requires an offer. Clubs, gyms and members' rooms, where a testing day is a member benefit rather than an HR exercise. Residential buildings with a wellness programme and a room to use.
What the employer sees, and what they do not
The individual result belongs to the individual. It is handed to them in the room, on paper, and kept in their own Elixir account if they want it there. It is never sent to the employer, their manager, occupational health or an insurer, and it is never used to decide anything about their job.
An employer who wants a picture of the whole site gets an anonymised summary only, and only where the numbers are large enough to hide a person: no group smaller than ten is ever reported, and no cell inside a group is reported below five. Below that floor the row is suppressed rather than rounded, because rounding a group of three still identifies three people. If a site is too small to report safely, we say so and you get attendance figures only.
Elixir is the controller for the record it holds and processes it under the member's own explicit consent; the reviewing clinician holds the clinical record under their professional duty. Nothing measured on the day selects any marketing, ever. How we hold results.
Start with one day
We would rather you tried a single site than signed a programme. One day tells you the two things a proposal cannot: how many of your people actually turn up, and what they say afterwards. If it works, we schedule the rest around it.
Questions organisations ask
Do we need a clinic room?
A quiet room with a table, two chairs and a plug. Not a clinical space — a meeting room, a members' room, a staff room out of hours. We bring the analyser, the consumables and the sharps disposal, and we leave the room as we found it.
How long does each person take?
Around ten minutes each, start to finish, including the conversation about their result. One analyser handles roughly forty to fifty people in a working day; we bring more than one for larger sites.
Can you come outside office hours?
That is usually the point. Night-shift assessments happen at the shift change, which often means late evening or very early morning. Weekend days at clubs and residences are normal for us.
Is this occupational health?
No, and we are careful about the difference. We are a measurement service: markers taken, run and explained on the day, reviewed by a GMC-registered clinician. We do not make fitness-for-work decisions, we do not report to your OH provider, and anything needing follow-up goes to the person's own GP.
What does it cost?
It depends on the panel, the number of people and whether it is one day or a programme. Prices are confirmed in writing before anything is booked — we would rather quote you properly than post a number that is wrong for your site.
How often should we do it?
Once, to see whether it is useful. Most sites that continue settle on twice a year, which is often enough for someone to see a direction and rare enough that it stays an event rather than a chore.
Ask about a pilot day
Tell us roughly what you have in mind. A person reads it and replies within one working day — no automated sequence, no chasing.
Elixir Health is a point-of-care measurement service. Samples are analysed at the venue and never sent to a laboratory. A single measurement on a single day is not a diagnosis. Elixir is not a clinic or a pharmacy. 18+.
