Many people supporting someone with dementia don't consider themselves to be carers. 💭
However, registering as a carer with your GP will enable them to support you in your caring role. The support offered by your GP practice will vary, but here are some of the things it may include:
🕐 Flexibility when booking doctor’s appointments, like booking back-to-back appointments if both you and the person you care for need to see the GP
💙 Support with your physical and mental health to enable you to carry out your caring responsibilities
🏥 Free annual health checks
🚚 Having prescriptions delivered to your home
