Learning disabilities

Everyone has the right to access healthcare services in a way that meets their needs. We offer a range of services to help you get the most from your appointment or stay in hospital.

Learning disabilities liaison team

Our learning disabilities liaison team helps us to provide care and treatment that meets your needs. This includes making any reasonable adjustments.

The team will also make sure you understand your care and treatment plan.

We can also offer you longer appointment times and encourage you to bring any tools that you use (e.g. communication boards).

My hospital passport

We use a ‘hospital passport’ to help you or your carer to tell us important information about you and your needs.

Other needs

If you would like to discuss any communication or other needs that you may need additional support for, please contact the ward or department (in person, by email or telephone) using the contact details on your appointment or admissions letter.
