Support for people with learning disabilities, autistic people, and people who are neuroatypical or neurodiverse

Your doctor, or someone else who looks after you, might ask us to care for you.

  • someone might ask us to find out why you’re sick
  • someone might ask us to treat your illness or look after you.

Depending on your illness, we might see you in different places:

  • we might care for you at home
  • you might come to us for an appointment
  • you might need to stay on one of our wards.

Your health passport

Front cover of the hospital passport

Your health passport is a really important document. Remember to bring it with you if you come to hospital.

Your health passport includes information about:

  • you
  • your health
  • your communications needs
  • who to contact in an emergency
  • your likes and dislikes
  • and lots more

That’s a lot of information! Ask a person you trust to help fill it in.

We ask for this information so we can treat you well, but if there's something you don't want to write down you don't have to. It's your choice.
