How accessible are NHS health screening tests?

8 Mar 2019 - 10:59 by michelle.foster

Breakthrough UK is working with Manchester Health and Care Commissioning to understand disabled people’s experiences of accessing NHS Health Screening Programmes. What works well? What are the barriers? What needs to change? Sharing your experiences will assist commissioners to make future screening as accessible as possible to local disabled people.

Complete the anonymous survey at: www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/ZQ7JMDZ, The survey should only take about five minutes to complete. It will be open until Monday 25 March 2019.

The screening programmes you will be asked about include:
• Screening tests in pregnancy
• Cervical screening (smear tests)
• Breast screening (mammograms)
• Bowel cancer screening
• Eye screening for people with Diabetes
• Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) screening

If you require this survey in an alternative format or would prefer to discuss your experiences in person, contact Elaine Astley on 0161 234 3950, email: [email protected] or contact the text service on 0793 994 3383.
