Your Health Passport

When you reach the age of 18, you will receive a copy of your health passport. The health passport contains a summary of your medical history. It is a great way for any healthcare service provider to see the care you received as a looked after child, for example a list of immunisations you have had. You can also access your medical record through your GP.

Registering with a GP/Doctor

If you are not already registered with a doctor near you, you can ask your PA or support worker to help you register or visit the NHS website.

Dentists and Opticians

If you are receiving benefits or you are age 19 or under in full time education at school or college (not university), you will have access to free dental and eye care.

Mental Health

If you are feeling anxious, stressed, depressed, angry or upset please speak to someone who can help you refer yourself for counselling. You can also speak to your GP.
