Learning Disabilities Primary Care Liaison Team

Our team of learning disability nurses works across primary care, including services such as GP practices and pharmacies.

We support adults with learning disabilities to understand, maintain and improve their own health. We also work with carers and professionals to reduce health inequalities.

We help to improve access to services for people with a learning disability and we work with patients, carers and professionals to promote understanding. We support people with learning disabilities to find and access the right services for them.

Our team also works with professionals to raise awareness of the health issues people with learning disabilities can face.

We mainly work with adults over 18. We also support young people aged 14 and over in their transition to adult services and an annual health check, if they:

• are registered with a Nottingham City GP
• have a learning disability
