Support for carers
Last Updated: Wednesday, 04 September 2024How we can help carers
It is important for you and the person you care for that you tell us about your caring responsibilities.
We can:
- Support you with any physical health issues related to your caring role, like tiredness
- Make you aware of the carer’s flu vaccination each year
- Talk to you about your mental health and the impact of your caring role
- Provide you with general information and advice
- Refer you to helpful organisations and services that can improve your caring situation
- Give you flexible appointments at times that suit you
- Refer you for a Carer’s Break payment if your caring role is impacting your health, potentially meaning you can take a break.
