Are you looking after someone?
It is important that you look after your own health; it is easy not to look after yourself when you are looking after someone else. Our carers can have access to annual health checks, flu vaccinations and signposting to other support through our in-house social prescriber.
Please let us know if you are a carer, or discuss this at your next appointment so that we can update our records and add you to our carers registers.
