Accessible Health Service
What is the Accessible Health Service?
Accessible Health is a service that links Deaf and Hard of Hearing patients with Health Professionals like GPs, opticians, dentists and hospital departments. It supports Deaf and Hard of Hearing people to make, check, change or cancel an appointment, while also ensuring their communication needs are supported in the most appropriate way during the appointment.
