See the carer
behind
the patient
If any of your patients are carers and
finding it hard to fulfill their role as a
carer, free support is available for them.
If you see a patient, family member
or colleague who is caring for someone
else, let them know help is available.
Many people don’t see themselves
as carers, so they might not reach out
for support.
