You will be able to have an influenza vaccination to help keep you safe this winter and other checks that my be due such as a smear test.  A general health check will be done to make sure you are getting the best treatment and our nurses can give you easy read leaflets to help you understand the tests that you may need. Your carer can also get support from our team too. You will leave with a Health Action Plan that you can follow to help with your health.
