Screening Packs for Women with a Learning Disability

Breast Test Wales and Cervical Screening Wales have created packs which have been designed for Learning Disability nurses and other allied Health Professionals to use with women with a learning disability to assist their journey through the screening process. There is one for smear tests and another for breast screening.

  1. There is also a Breast Screening Pack devised by the Community Learning Disablity Nurses in Leeds which has a DVD and easy read leaflet. These are based in the health libraries at St Marys Hospital and the Public Health Resource Centre in Armley.
