Young Carers Support at Northern Moor Medical Practice
We are a young carer aware practice.
We have a designated Young Carer Champion at our surgery - Joanne Hayes
We will have promotional materials to help identify and raise public awareness of who young carers are and how they can access support.
At our surgery all our staff have had young carer training
We will listen to young carers and their families and are committed to connecting them to the support they may need and want.
We can make arrangements for young carers so that their visits to our surgery are at a time that works around their caring responsibilities
We have private spaces so young carers and their families can talk openly about any worries or needs they may have
We are dedicated to supporting families overcome any barriers to accessing services, this includes overcoming barriers that might prevent families from seeking help and support.
We will work closely with the Young Carers Lead to keep up to date of all the latest offers and opportunities available to young carers in our city.
We will continue to raise awareness to all our staff so that we can be confident in identifying and supporting young carers.
We will ask young carers and support young carers about their own health needs and want young carers to know that we care about them, the challenges they and their families face and can be someone to turn to for advice and signposting.
