We have created a range of easy-to-use resources to help you understand the support available in healthcare settings. These resources
explain who can help, what to expect at appointments, and where to find extra support if you need it.
On this page, you will find information about:
- which healthcare professionals can help
- seeing a heart doctor for the first time
- information for those with learning disabilities
- help with NHS prescription costs
These resources are designed to make healthcare easier to understand and less overwhelming, so you feel confident and supported when working with your healthcare team.
Download: all resources on this page are available to download in Word or PDF. We also provide Easy Read versions which may help support people with learning disabilities, autism, or cognitive disabilities but many people will find them useful.
