Reasonable Adjustments

 

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

 

Introduction

Reasonable adjustments are a legal requirement to make sure health care services are accessible to all disabled people, (Equality Act 2010).This includes people with a physical, sensory or learning disability or a long term condition such as dementia.

We are keen to make sure our services are accessible to all our patients.

 

Examples of reasonable adjustments

  • Longer appointment times, enabling time for explanation and understanding
  • Video consultation
  • Easy read documentation
  • Speech to text—via Relay UK (BT service)
  • Organising an interpreter
  • Flexibility with appointment times
  • Voice amplifier
