The 'Top to Toe' health checklist
This checklist is currently in development. A pilot version is being tested with people who take part in our training.
The idea of the checklist is to make it easy for supporters to do a basic health check with the people with learning disabilities they support. Health actions are agreed after doing a the health checklist.
The checklist gives you basic health information, tips, and highlights issues that may need you to contact a health professional for like your GP for advice.
You can download the ‘teeth and gums’ section of the checklist below to give you an idea of what the checklist will look like. The finished version will have 20 sections.
There will be separate males and female versions.
