New resource – Healthcare Organiser

New resource – Healthcare Organiser

Our new Healthcare Organiser is here!

We’ve produced this organiser to be used by families wishing to keep a personal record of their child’s medical history, current needs, and health services input.

We hope this record will help families keep track of their child’s progress and changing medical needs and support them in the conversations they have with their medical team.

We’ve also produced a print friendly version with less colour on the front and back page – to access this version please click on the button below.
