Individual Futures has identified that people with learning disabilities often have difficulty in recognising illness, communicating their needs and using health services. We understand the many reasons and difficulties in accessing the GP for regular health checks; furthermore, a change to routine, an unfamiliar place or alien environment for some, can be challenge enough without the stress of examination.
Individual Futures offer a short weekly session that works closely in maintaining the records of blood pressures, weights and the general wellbeing of our customers. The session offers a regular opportunity for customers to engage privately with a friendly face, these relaxed meetings lend themselves to true blood pressure readings and often highlight matters where targeted support may be introduced. The organisation is dedicated to offering high standards of care to all of our customers. We demonstrate the commitment of ensuring the wellbeing of our customers, by offering that little extra quality of time, one of many reasons our person centred approach is unique to the organisation.
