During the current lock-down many people still have essential hospital appointments they need to attend, but there are several common questions patients are asking about how services have been affected by Coronavirus.
Are patient transport services still running? What should you do if you have been told you shouldn’t use patient transport services because you are shielding or are extremely vulnerable?
Healthwatch Sheffield has put together a Healthwatch Helpsheet called Getting to my essential appointment which answers these questions and more.
Healthwatch Sheffield also have a useful COVID-19 Information and Advice page outlining how to stay safe and healthy during this time. The page includes links to associate organisations who can offer specific health and social care support and will be updated regularly.
Remember you can also stay up to date with the Disability Sheffield Coronavirus Information and Support page.
